PAR-2 gene expression in PDGF-BB stimulated rabbit Achilles tenocytes in vitro

Two data sets are presented: The first data set (“qPCR 4A_xlsx”) refers to PAR-2 gene expression in rabbit Achilles tenocyte culture under stimulation of PDGF-BB supplementation (with 20 ng/mL PDGF-BB or without supplementation of PDGF-BB) as a function of time; at days 3, 7 and 14 in vitro. The second data set (“qPCR 4B_xlsx”) represents PAR-2 gene expression in rabbit Achilles tenocytes on day 3 under stimulation of PDGF-BB supplementation (with 20 ng/mL PDGF-BB or without supplementation of PDGF-BB) in the presence or absence of inhibitors in a 40 μM concentration and 5 % fetal bovine serum in vitro. The following inhibitors were applied: SB203580 = inhibitor for MAPK; LY-294002 = inhibitor for PI3K; PD153035 = inhibitor for EGFR. Furthermore, gene expression was assessed under DMSO = dimethyl sulfoxide (solvent of the inhibitors) or in medium = basal culture medium (with 10 % fetal bovine serum).
