(a) Immunostaining microphotographs of Bcl-2 (magnification 200x). (b) Quantitative image analyses of Bcl-2 protein were performed based on the IOD of positive immunostaining (brown) in the heart tissues. (c) The ratio of Bcl-2/Bax in IOD. All data were presented as mean ± SD. versus Sham group; and versus Model group. A: Sham group (), B: Model group (), C: Digoxin group (), D: HA group (), E: GA group (), and F: HA + GA group (). HA: hypaconitine; GA: glycyrrhetinic acid.
