Detection of HIF-1α and induced gene expression.

Notes: Seven days after treatment, the gastrocnemius muscles in mice ischemic hindlimbs were harvested for Western blot and qPCR analysis. (A) Representative Western blot image for HIF-1α protein detection. (B) qPCR analysis of HIF-1α gene expression. *P<0.05 versus all other groups; #P<0.05 versus the saline group. (C) qPCR analysis of HIF-1α induced gene expression. *P<0.05 versus all other groups; #P<0.05 versus the saline group (n=7). Pluronic® L64 (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA).
