Fig. 2From: Downregulation of lncRNA Miat contributes to the protective effect of electroacupuncture against myocardial fibrosisEffects of electroacupuncture on the level of myocardial fibrosis markers. A–D RT-qPCR was performed to determine the mRNA expression of Collagen I, Collagen III, TGF-β1 and CTGF in rat heart tissues (n = 6 rats in each group). E, F Western blot was performed to determine the protein expression of Collagen I, Collagen III, TGF-β1 and CTGF in rat heart tissues, ACTIN was used as loading control. Results are presented as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01Back to article page
