Data are expressed as the . NC: normal control group; HC: high-fat control group; HI: high-fat ischemia group; HG: high-fat glutamine ischemia group; SDF: stromal cell-derived factor; VEGF: vascular endothelial growth factor; MMP: matrix metalloproteinase. All data are representative of duplicate measurements on day 1 or 7 ( for the respective groups). Differences among groups were analyzed by a one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test. Significant differences from the two other groups. |
