DHA Supplementation Attenuates MI-Induced LV Matrix Remodeling and Dysfunction in Mice

Figure 6

DHA pretreatment attenuates PPAR expression and enhances uncoupling protein expression post-MI; both are cardioprotective. (a) Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR-α) and (b) mitochondrial uncoupling protein 3 (UCP 3) mRNA expressions were analyzed in the murine myocardium of native, sham, and MI-exposed mice that were CD or DHA supplemented. mice per group, .
