Up-regulation of PDCD5 in Ang II-induced cardiac hypertrophy. AnLin ZhaoXiwen WuJian JiaJianguo ZouYunzeng GuoXizhi HeLin ZhuHongxin 2012 <p>(A), HW∶BW ratio showing significant increase in cardiac mass in mice treated with Ang II for 2 weeks compared to sham control mice. (B) Expression of ANF was determined by quantitative Real-Time RT-PCR analysis in cDNA samples derived from hearts of mice treated with Ang II and sham control. (C), Expression of βMHC was determined by quantitative Real-Time RT-PCR analysis in cDNA samples derived from hearts of mice treated with Ang II and sham control. (D), Representative western blot of PDCD5 and internal control actin proteins in heart extracts from 8–week-old male mice with sham or Ang II treatment. (E), Quantitative analysis revealed that PDCD5 levels were up-regulated in hearts from mice treated with Ang II (n = 4) as compared to sham control mice (n = 4). *<i>P<0.05</i>, sham vs. Ang II treatment.</p>
