Immunofluorescence of TLR4 in each group.
(A) Representive immunofluorescence images of cardiomyocytes stained with TLR4 (green) and nucleus (blue) under x100 magnification. DAPI was used for nuclear counterstaining. (B) Determination of TLR4 fluorescence intensity mean value. Each group contains six samples. Data are mean ± standard deviation. *P < 0.05 versus the control group; #P < 0.05 versus ox-LDL-treated group. Scale bar = 100 μm. TLR4, toll-like receptor 4; DAPI, 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole.
