Nestin expression after arterial injury.
Western blot analysis of Nestin(177 kDa) expression in vehicle-, SB431542 (SB)- and rhTGF-β1-treated rats with common carotid arterial injury. *P < 0.05, SB- vs. vehicle-treated rats; #P < 0.05, rhTGF-β1- vs. vehicle-treated rats. The blots were cropped and the gels were run under the same experimental conditions.
