Antioxidation Function of EGCG by Activating Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway in Mice with Coronary Heart Disease

Figure 4

Effect of EGCG on VEGFA and MMP-2 expression levels in cardiac tissues of mice. (a, b) Western blot analysis of the protein levels of VEGFA and MMP-2 in cardiac tissues of mice in each group and corresponding quantification of the protein expression. p < 0.01 vs. Control group; ^##p < 0.01 vs. Model group. CHD, coronary heart disease; EGCG, epigallocatechin gallate; VEGFA, vascular endothelial growth factor; MMP-2, matrix metalloproteinase 2.
