Results of Dex (100 nM) exposure on the relative Scx gene expression and the expression of non-tendinous genes. A significant down regulation of Scx mRNA is seen (a) and this down regulation is consistent over a 48 h time course (b). Acan, Sox9 and Alpl expression is reduced (c) and Pparg is up-regulated in cells exposed to Dex. *p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; *** p < 0.001; n.s. (non-significant)
