Knockout of Angiotensin AT2 receptors accelerates healing but impairs quality
Figure 8.
Biomechanical assessment of healed skin in WT, AT1R−/− and AT2R−/− mouse cohorts. (A) Sample representation of tension–elongation curve. (B) Comparison of the average tension at the breaking point of mice groups (mean ± SEM, n = 10; *P < 0.05, Mann–Whitney analysis). (C) Average elongation at the breaking point of both groups (*P < 0.05, t-test). (D) Average work at the breaking point of both groups (calculated from the integral of the curve; *P < 0.05, Mann–Whitney analysis).
