Astragaloside IV Exerts a Myocardial Protective Effect against Cardiac Hypertrophy in Rats, Partially via Activating the Nrf2/HO-1 Signaling Pathway
Figure 3
Western blotting and RT-qPCR analyses of antioxidative protein and mRNA expression in the 5 experimental groups. (a, b) Representative blots of Nrf2 and HO-1, and the intensity normalized against GAPDH, in the LV myocardium in the 5 groups ( for the 5 experimental groups). Quantitative data are presented as the . vs. the sham operation group; # vs. the CHF model group. (c) Relative quantification of Nrf2 and HO-1 mRNA by RT-qPCR in the LV myocardium in the 5 groups ( for the 5 experimental groups). Quantitative data are presented as the . vs. the sham operation; # vs. the CHF model.
