Figure 6. The Expression of NFκB and Downstream Angiogenic Proteins in rho/VEGF Mouse Model.

Figure 6

Immunohistochemical analysis of NFκB/p65, FAK, α5β1, EPO, ET-1, and MMP-9, has indicated the expression levels of these proteins were significantly elevated in the rho/VEGF retinas that were left untreated. YC-1-treated retinas exhibited a significant decrease in the protein expression levels as compared with DMSO-treated retinas. Despite the sustained expression of VEGF, there were no detectable differences in the levels of CXCR4 and SDF-1 protein expression amongst the animals of all groups. Retinas were examined at 100× objective. Scale bar, 100 µm.
