Can Chronic Nitric Oxide Inhibition Improve Liver and Renal Dysfunction in Bile Duct Ligated Rats?

Figure 3

Effect of aminoguanidine (AG) and L-NAME on liver MMP-13 gene expression relative to β-actin in bile duct ligated (BDL) rats and an agarose gel electrophoresis show PCR products of MMP-13 in different studied groups. Lane M: DNA marker with 100 bp; Lane 1: PCR products of MMP-13 in control group; Lane 2: PCR products of MMP-13 in sham group; Lane 3: PCR products of MMP-13 in BDL group; Lane 4: PCR products of MMP-13 in aminoguanidine group; Lane 5: PCR products of MMP-13 in L-NAME group.
