Paeonol ameliorated histopathological injury, suppressed apoptosis, and downregulated the miR-21-5p expression in the myocardium of CHF rats. (A) The myocardial histopathology of the rats was detected by hematoxylin–eosin staining (magnification of ×200). (B) The myocardial apoptosis of the rats was detected by TUNEL staining (Magnification: ×200). (C,D) The levels of Bcl-2, Bax, caspase-3, C-caspase-3, and Cyt C in the myocardium of rats were detected by Western blot. GAPDH was used as an internal control. (E) The expression of miR-21-5p in the myocardium of rats was detected by RT-qPCR, with U6 serving as an internal control. P < 0.05, ∧∧P < 0.01, ∧∧∧P < 0.001, vs. Sham; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 vs. DOX. DOX, doxorubicin.
