Overexpression of Salusin-α Inhibits Vascular Intimal Hyperplasia in an Atherosclerotic Rabbit Model

Figure 2

Effects of the salusin-α gene on model intima media thickness. (A) Representative average arterial intima thickness images (a-g) in these seven groups. (B) The blue column indicates the mean arterial intima thickness in the seven groups, and the red column indicates the media. (C) The mean intima/media ratios were calculated as the mean arterial intima thickness divided by the media. The data are representative of three independent experiments , ).
