From: PEDF and PEDF-derived peptide 44mer stimulate cardiac triglyceride degradation via ATGL
Effects of PEDF and 44mer on ATGL and CGI-58 mRNA in cardiomyocytes. A: western blot determination for ATGL protein expression, samples treated with rPEDF or 44mer. B: densitometry of the western blots shown in (A), normalized to β-actin. n = 3, values are means ± SD. *P < 0.05 compared with control group. C: PEDF administration caused the ATGL mRNA levels to decrease. n = 5, values are means ± SD. *P < 0.05 compared with control group. D: PEDF and 44mer did not affect the expression of CGI-58 mRNA. n = 5, values are means ± SD.
