Figure 7

Protein nitration in the lungs and aorta. (a, b) Increased general protein nitration in the aorta but not in the lungs of diabetic mice as revealed by dot blot analysis (control , diabetes ). Representative original blot images are also shown. (c) Immunohistochemical determination of 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT) and PGIS with the slight increase in 3-NT immunostaining in the diabetic lungs—the comparison of similar regions of tissues. Data are presented as the means ± SEM. . Representative images of at least 2 independent experiments.
