Figure 9. MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression increases in twisted arteries.

Figure 9

Top: Representative western blotting results showing the levels of MMP-2, MMP-9 and GAPDH in the control and twisting groups. Bargraphs: Comparison of the relative intensities of MMP-2 (Left) and MMP-9 (Right) of the control and twisting groups. Values were normalized with housekeeping gene GAPDH. * p < 0.05 vs. controls, ** p < 0.01 vs. control. n = 7.
