Figure 6From: C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) isoforms play differing roles in otitis mediaME mucosal hyperplasia. Thickness of the ME subepithelial stroma. A significant delay in epithelial and stromal growth is observed for JNK2-/- mice, while prolonged thickness was seen in both mutant strains. Thickness was assessed at standardized locations in the ME and averaged for each animal, and then across animals for each post-inoculation time. (* = p < .05; ** = p < .01, comparing KOs to WTs).Back to article page
