Differential Expression of Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Receptors in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Figure 1
Representative pictures of western blot analysis of S1P receptors in AAA and control aortic tissues. S1P1 expression was undetectable in both AAA and normal aortas, while it became detectable in rat brain tissues (a). Expression level of S1P2 protein was significantly decreased in AAAs compared with control aortas (b). S1P3 expression was detectable in AAAs only (c). GAPDH antibody was used as internal positive control in each WB experiment.
