Figure 5 Lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptors (LOX-1) expression and lipid peroxidation. Lipid peroxidation was determined by the measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA). Myocardial MDA levels were markedly higher in the saline-treated rats subjected to ischemia-reperfusion (I-R); LOX-1 antibody (Ab-LOX-1) reduced MDA levels, while the nonspecific immunoglobulin G (IgG) had no effect. The data is mean (± SD) of values from 10 separate experiments.
