Fig 1. Expression of p53 in compensated and decompensated human right ventricular tissue.

Fig 1

(A) Immunoblot analysis of p53 expression and its subsequent densitometric quantification of control (n = 20), compensated (n = 11) and decompensated (n = 10) human right ventricular (RV) tissues. §P < 0.05 decompensated versus compensated. (B) Immunofluorescence images representing p53 expression in CD31-positive cells. Smaller and bigger scale bars indicate 10 and 20μM, respectively. (C) Representative graph demonstrating an increase of p53 expression in CD31-positive cells (in %) in control (n = 6), compensated (n = 6) and decompensated (n = 7) human RVs. *P < 0.05 decompensated versus control. (D) Representative graph demonstrating the p53 expression in cardiomyocytes (in %) in control (n = 6), compensated (n = 6) and decompensated (n = 7) human RVs. All the data represent the mean ± SEM.
