Representative protein band densities and quantitative analysis of inflammation and apoptosis in the DCD heart. (a) Representative protein band densities of MPO, Bcl2, Bax, Cleaved caspase 3, and Cytochrome c and (b) quantitative analysis of protein expression. Data represent the of the mean. for each group. MPO: myeloperoxidase; Bcl2: B-cell lymphoma-2; Bax: Bcl2-associated X protein. vs. DCD-Control, # vs. non-DCD.
