Caption | KLF5 is essential for pressure overload-induced hypertrophy. (A-D) Klf5tm1Rng/Klf5+ (Klf5+/-) and wild-type (WT) mice were subjected to low intensity transverse aortic constriction (LI-TAC) or sham operation. (A) Representative low-magnification views of hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained heart sections from WT and mutant mice 2 weeks after the operations. Scale bar: 1 mm. (B and C) Heart weight/body (HW/BW) weight ratios (B) and relative cross-sectional areas of cardiomyocytes (C) from WT and mutant hearts. (D) Fractional areas of fibrosis in cross sections of hearts as determined by elastic picrosirius red staining. *P < 0.01 versus sham control of the same genotype; #P < 0.05 versus WT subjected to TAC. n= 7. (E) Expression of KLF5 in normal and hypertrophied hearts 4 days after LI-TAC. Cells were double stained for KLF5 (brown) and a cardiomyocyte marker, alphaMHC (red); nuclei were counterstained in blue. Scale bar: 20 um. | ||||
