Heterodimerization of APJ and KOR in the left ventricle of 2K1C animals and the effect of apelin 20 and 40 µg/kg on it. A: Co-immunoprecipitation with KOR and control antibodies. B: Western blotting was performed for APJ or for KOR after KOR was immunoprecipitated (upper panel) or for total lysate without immunoprecipitation (lower panel). C: Quantification of the data in B (upper panel) (n=6 in each group). Ap20: Apelin 20 µg/kg , Ap40: Apelin 40 µg/kg * = P<0.05 vs. Sham. # = P<0.05 vs 2K1C. $ = P<0.05 vs. 2K1C + Ap20
