Figure 7. AGEs protein expression and stiffening effects in aortic segments in vitro.

Figure 7

Effects of pyrogallol (Pyr) and (A) 50 mM and (B) 100 µM sodium nitrite on AGEs expression in cultured aortic segments obtained from young mice (n = 4–8 per group). (C) Effects of AGEs (100 µg/mL) and 100 µM sodium nitrite on elastic modulus, a measure of intrinsic arterial stiffness, in cultured aortic segments from young mice (n = 3–6 per group). Values are mean ± S.E.M. * p<0.05 vs. all.
