Figure 2: Increased heart size and cell number but not cell size in transgenic mice.

From: Overexpressing the novel autocrine/endocrine adipokine WISP2 induces hyperplasia of the heart, white and brown adipose tissues and prevents insulin resistance

Figure 2

(a) Representative heart sections from 23 weeks old wt and Tg mice on HFD and the left ventricular wall (20x magnification) visualized with Hematoxylin staining. (b) Quantification of cell area (n = 4/group) of the left ventricular wall (20x magnification) stained with anti-dystrophin. The experimental data are presented as means ± SEM. Student’s t-test was used.
