Treatment with the antiangiogenesis drug NP-470 suppressed cardiac angiogenesis in β2-TG hearts. WT and β2-TG mice were treated with vehicle or TNP-470 for 2 weeks. (A) representative images showing dual-stained cardiomyocytes (WGA, green) and endothelial cells (IB4, red) of the LVs (n = 4–7/group). Bar = 50 μm. Capillary density was presented as the number of microvessels per cardiomyocyte. *< 0.05 versus WT controls; #< 0.05. (B) Representative ECG traces after 2 weeks administration of TNP-470. Arrows indicate the typical ischemia-like ST-depression and T-wave inversion in the β2-TG mice treated with TNP-470. (C) Group analysis of ECG findings in WT and β2-TG mice (n = 7–8/group). (D) survival curve of WT and β2-TG mice during the 2 weeks period of TNP-470 treatment.
