doi: 10.3390/ph18101447
Figure Lengend Snippet: WB analysis of inflammatory and apoptotic proteins in cardiomyocytes treated with IQ and Que in vitro. ( A ) IQ and Que regulate Ang II induced expression of apoptosis related proteins (Caspase-3/Bax/CytoC/Bcl-2) in H9c2 cells. Grayscale quantification of apoptotic markers (Bax/Bcl-2/Caspase-3/CytoC). ( B ) IQ and Que modulate Ang II induced expression of JNK/ERK/P38 and their phosphorylated forms in H9c2 cells. Quantification of inflammatory protein expression by densitometric analysis. Data are presented as mean ± SD. (n = 3 data were presented as mean ± SEM, # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01, ### p < 0.001, #### p < 0.0001, vs. Ang II, ** p < 0.01, IQ vs. Que, ns, p > 0.05, IQ vs. Que).
