Figure 6. Effect of the Tβ4 treatment on CTGF and Col 3a level in the right ventricle.

Figure 6

(A) Graph shows the mRNA expression of CTGF and Col 3a in the right ventricles of WT, Tβ4, WT+ MCT and MCT+ Tβ4 groups. The RT-PCR was performed using their specific probes. (B) Representative Western blots showing protein expression of CTGF and Col 3a in the above group of mice. GAPDH was used as an internal loading control. (C) Graph shows the relative fold change in the protein expression of CTGF and Col 3a by densitometry. Data are expressed as means ± SE from 5 independent mice.*p<0.05, compared with the WT mice. # p<0.05 compared with the WT-MCT mice.
