Cell number and FGF2 effects (+) on control (C), sporadic (SAD) and familial (FAD) Alzheimer’s disease fibroblasts. Fibroblasts were mantained in serum-free MEM for 24h with and without FGF2 (20 ng/ml). The values were the mean ± SD of three independent experiments each performed in quintuplicate for n=10 subjects for group. Data were analyzed by ANOVA. Differences vs. respective control; *F-test significant at 99%. Differences vs. respective untreated group; §F-test significant at 99%; ns = not significant.
