Figure 9From: Enhanced expressions of microvascular smooth muscle receptors after focal cerebral ischemia occur via the MAPK MEK/ERK pathwayExpression and upregulation of ETB protein levels in middle cerebral artery after 48 h of MCAO with β-actin as a loading control is shown above. Treatment with U0126 decreased the enhanced expression of ETB receptor protein after MCAO. Data is expressed as mean ± s.e.m., n = 4, *P < 0.05.Back to article page
