BMP-2 mRNA Expression in Different Vascular Beds

BMP-2 mRNA (%)
Aorta 100 ± 36
Coronary artery 109 ± 20
Middle cerebral artery 79 ± 40
Femoral artery 127 ± 39
Brachial artery 148 ± 36

Expression of BMP-2 mRNA in different vascular beds in male Wistar rats. β-Actin mRNA was used for normalization purposes. Data are mean ± SD (n = 4 in each group). n.d.: not determined. Values are normalized to the mean of BMP:β-actin ratios in the aorta.
