From: Tendinosis-like changes in denervated rat Achilles tendon
Denervated tendons express molecules associated with tendinosis. (a) Expression of genes related to tendinosis using qRT-PCR: substance P (Tac1) and its preferred receptor NK-1R (Tacr1). (b) Immunohistochemistry showing positive staining for NK-1R in a denervated tendon. Bar = 5 μm. ** indicates p < 0.01. Values of p < 0.05 were considered statistically significant
