VNS increased CPT1β expression in VSMCs of the infarcted hearts. a Typical immunostaining images for CPT1β showing that VSMCs were CPT1β positive, and VNS increased CPT1β expression in VSMCs of infarcted heart, which could be abolished by atropine (Atrop) or mecamylamine (MLA). Brownish yellow indicates CPT1β; Hematoxylin-stained nucleus; b, c Semiquantitative analysis of CPT1β levels in VSMCs of the peri-infarction area (b) and infarction area (c) of the infarcted hearts. *P < 0.05 vs. Sham; # P < 0.05 vs. MI; & P < 0.05 vs. VNS (n = 12)
