Effects of QSG on PPARα-RXRs pathway in HF rats after AMI. The expression of PPARα, RXRα, RXRβ and RXRγ in protein levels were down-regulated in the sham group compared with the model group. After treatment with QSG, PPARα-RXRs pathway was activated, illustrated by an increased levels of PPARα, RXRα, RXRβ and RXRγ. n = 4 per group. Values are mean ± SE. Asterisks indicates significant differences. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
