Pterostilbene Attenuates Fructose-Induced Myocardial Fibrosis by Inhibiting ROS-Driven Pitx2c/miR-15b Pathway
Figure 7
Effects of pterostilbene and allopurinol on oxidative stress in fructose-fed rat hearts and fructose-exposed H9c2 cells. NADPH oxidase activity, ROS production, and MDA levels were measured in fructose-fed rat hearts (a–c) and fructose-exposed H9c2 cells (d–f) (), respectively. Data are expressed as the ##, ### vs. normal animal control group or normal cell control group; , , and vs. fructose-vehicle animal group or fructose-vehicle cell group.
