A. Representative immunoblots showing the levels of important markers of apoptosis in the temporal cortex of control and VaD patients. B. Bar chart of band densities (in arbitrary units) involving all twenty individuals and normalized with the expression of muscle actin, which was used as a loading control. There were no statistically significant difference in the abundance of BCL2 and pro-caspase 3 between control and VaD group. Data was presented as mean ± SEM (n = 10), where *p < 0.05, significantly different from control using independent-sample t-test.
