Figure 2. The TGF-β1 promotes cell–cell GJ of osteocytes
(A) Representative images of scratch wound closure assay observed by phase-contrast microscopy at 20× magnification. The results were based on three independent experiments (n = 3).

Figure 6. Repsox represses translocation of Smad3 and Smad4 into nucleus resulting in attenuation of the effect of TGF-β1 on Cx43
(D) Representative IF staining by CLSM showing reduced translocation of Smad4 in osteocytes after pretreatment with 50 μM Repsox for 6 h and then treatment with 5 ng/ml TGF-β1 for 24 h compared with the group only treated with TGF-β1 (cytoskeleton, green; Smad4, red; nucleus, blue). The results were based on the three independent experiments (n = 3).
