Figure 4. TRPV4 expression profiles in mesenteric artery endothelial cells (MAECs) derived from young and aged rats.

Figure 4

Representative images (A) and summarized data (B) showing TRPV4 expression levels in cultured primary MAECs obtained from young and aged rats and evaluated using Western blotting assays. β-tubulin was used as a loading control. Protein levels are expressed as relative optical densities. Mean ± SE (n = 3). *P < 0.05, young (3 months old) vs. aged (22 months old) rats. (C) MAECs are immunostained with an anti-TRPV4 antibody. In contrast to the control (omission of primary antibody), immunostaining for TRPV4 is detected in MAECs from young and aged rats.
