Fig 6. Effect of Visfatin on the Expression of MMP-1, MMP-2 and MMP-9.

Fig 6

A, Western blot analysis was used to detect the expressions of MMP-1, MMP-2 and MMP-9 in the represent samples of carotid plaques from the 2 treatment groups. B, RAW264.7 macrophages were cultured and treated with visfatin (500ng/ml) for different time, and western blot analysis was used to detect the expressions of MMP-1, MMP-2 and MMP-9 at different time points. *P<0.05 versus the control group; ** P<0.01 versus the control group. Data shown are the means ± SEM.
