Protein expression of heme oxygenase-2 (HO-2) in carotid bodies from sham and heart failure (CHF) rabbits. A: representative bands have HO-2 and β-tubulin proteins. B: relative HO-2 protein expression in carotid body from sham and CHF rabbits. Values are means ± SE; n = 5 in each group. *P < 0.05 vs. sham. C: colocalization of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and HO-2 in carotid bodies from a sham (a–c) and a CHF (d–f) rabbit. a and d: Green Immunofluorescent image for TH; b and e: red Immunofluorescent image for HO-2; c and f: merged image (yellow) for overlap of TH and HO-2.
