lncRNA NEAT1 Downregulation Ameliorates the Myocardial Infarction of Mice by Regulating the miR-582-5p/F2RL2 Axis

Figure 2

F2RL2 downregulation ameliorated left ventricular function and infarct area of MI mice. (a–c) The expression of F2RL2 in myocardial tissues of MI mice was examined by qRT-PCR and Western blot. (d, e) The EF (d) and FS (e) of MI mice were evaluated using echocardiography. (f, g) The infarct area of mice was examined by TTC and Evans blue staining assays. (, vs. sham; ## and ###, vs. MI+shNC) (F2RL2: coagulation factor II thrombin receptor like 2; MI: myocardial infarction; TTC: triphenyltetrazolium chloride; EF: ejection fraction; SF: fractional shortening).
