the effects of microcurrent on calf osteoblast-like cells 26 and rat tendon fibroblasts 18 have been reported, but relatively little is known about the effects at the cellular level in general, and no specific data exist on the effect in equine

characterized for the equine species; therefore, both of these genes were cloned. Published human sequences were used to design primers, and clones were developed and subsequently sequenced. Probes were then generated for real-time PCR analyses to determine the
