Fig 2 Images of neonatal fibroblasts (NNF) (×10) before and after wounding. Shown here are NNF grown to confluence and before wounding at (A) atmosphere (ATM), (B) ATM plus 30 mm Hg, (C) ATM plus 60 mm Hg, and (D) ATM plus 120 mm Hg. NNF 2 days after wounding are shown after growing at (E) ATM, (F) ATM plus 30 mm Hg, (G) ATM plus 60 mm Hg, and (H) ATM plus 120 mm Hg.
