Quercetin Inhibits Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats and Inhibits Angiotensin II-Induced H9C2 Cells Hypertrophy by Enhancing PPAR-γ Expression and Suppressing AP-1 Activity
Figure 9
Western blotting reveals that quercetin enhances PPAR-γ protein expression and suppresses AP-1 protein expression.
After 12 weeks of treatment with quercetin, the myocardial tissues protein expression were analysis by Western blotting. All samples were analyzed in triplicate and expressed as the mean ± sem. *P<0.05, vs. the Wistar–Kyoto rats (WKY) group; **P<0.05, vs. the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) group; #P<0.05, vs. the SHR+QH group.
