Western blot analysis of TIMP protein expression levels in brain capillaries isolated from rats after SE (Fig. 2B)a
Protein | Control | Pilo | SE |
---|---|---|---|
TIMP-1 | 100 ± 15.8 | 121.2 ± 17.8 | 235.6 ± 23* |
TIMP-2 | 100 ± 9.8 | 107.1 ± 10.9 | 148.4 ± 16.4* |
TIMP-3 | 100 ± 14.3 | 109.7 ± 15.9 | 115.0 ± 17.8 |
aData were normalized to β-actin levels; values are percentage control ± SD (n = 3).
*p < 0.05, each endpoint versus control (Dunnett's many-to-one t test).
