Insulin Resistance Promotes Early Atherosclerosis via Increased Proinflammatory Proteins and Oxidative Stress in Fructose-Fed ApoE-KO Mice
Figure 4
Expression of MMP-9 in aorta from ApoE KO and WT mice fed control diet or fructose-rich diet (HF) determined by Western Blot and immunoflorescence detection. Quantification of the fluorescent signal was performed by ImageJ software. Results are expressed as means ± S.E.M * versus control diet. (MMP-9: red; Actin: green).
