Although this difference did not reach statistical significance using a linear mixed model, employed to assess the interdependence of measurements of distinct SMCs from the same animal ( Figure 9, B–D ), we found a significant leftward shift in the mean intensity distribution of aggregates in Tg Notch3 R169C Notch3 +/– mice ( Figure 9E ).
