The comparison of the secretome from young and aged fibroblasts revealed that 16 proteins in resting condition, and 11 proteins after a 24h-lasting TGF-β1-treatment, were expressed in significant different ways between the two cell groups (fold change>2, <i>p-value</i> <0.05), with a 77% decrease in the number of secreted proteins in aged cells.
