Differences in cardiac MAPK activation and heart/body weight ratio between wild-type and A2AR knockout mice. (A) Immunoblotting for the expression of total and phosphorylated ERK1/2, p38MAPK, and JNK detected by phospho-specific monoclonal antibodies. (B) Protein bands were quantified densitometrically and the levels of MAPK phosphorylation were normalised to the total protein levels of these molecules in the same samples and expressed as arbitrary units. n=12 hearts. (C) Body weights, heart weights, and heart/body weight ratio of wild-type and A2AR knockout mice. n=24 mice. *P<0.05 for A2AR knockout versus wild-type controls.
