Alterations in Gene Expression.

<p>Changes in expression of small Rho GTPases RhoA, Rac1, and Cdc42 before and after prolonged treatment with TCM (A). A simplified diagram of short-term response of cells to treatment with TCM by actin polymerization and crosslinking (B). After 24 hour exposure to TCM, alterations in morphology and adhesion can be explained by differential gene expression in MSCs and fibroblasts (C).
