Figure 2

Collagen synthesis by cardiac fibroblasts in response to incubation with conditioned medium from endocardial endothelial cells treated with TNF-α and LPS for 24 hours. The values are mean ± SD (n = 6; Control-CM vs TNF-CM and LPS-CM, *p < 0.05. Control-CM vs 0.4% M199 *p < 0.05). Control-CM = Fibroblasts grown in conditioned medium from untreated endocardial endothelial cells, TNF-CM = Fibroblasts grown in conditioned medium from endocardial endothelial cells treated with TNF-α, LPS-CM = Fibroblasts grown in conditioned medium from endocardial endothelial cells treated with LPS, 0.4% M199 = Fibroblasts grown in M199 containing 0.4% FBS. 'n' is the number of times each experiment was done.
