Figure 7. COL1-A1 and COL3-A1 expression in mechanically unloaded hearts.

Figure 7

(A) Relative COL1-A1 and COL3-A1 mRNA levels from matched patients before and after LVAD implantation. (B) Correlation between COL1-A1 vs. COL3-A1 down-regulation in individual patients after LVAD implantation. (C) Relative COL1-A1 and COL3-A1 mRNA levels in pre- and post-LVAD tissue samples (n=15 for each) were compared to the average values obtained in NF patients (n=20). *P<0.05 vs. NF; #P<0.05, pre- vs. post-LVAD data.
