Figure 4

MSC ameliorated myocardial oxidative stress, remodeling, and fibrosis. A) Myocardial production of superoxide anion, detected by DHE (top), and its quantification (bottom). B) Left ventricular sections stained with H & E (top) and quantification of myocyte cross-sectional area (bottom). C) Representative staining and quantification of Sirius red and trichrome. *P <0.05 versus normal, †P <0.05 versus RVH + PTRA + MSC. DHE, dihydroethidium; MSC, mesenchymal stem cells; PTRA, percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty; RVH, renovascular hypertension.
