Figure 1 LV Endomyocardial Expression of Functional and Contractile Genes

Left ventricular (LV) endomyocardial expression of functional and contractile genes at baseline (open bars) and at 4-month follow-up (solid bars) in responders and nonresponders. Data are normalized for glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and expressed as relative units. {alpha}-MHC = {alpha}-myosin heavy chain; β-MHC = β-myosin heavy chain; BNP = brain natriuretic peptide; PLN = phospholamban; SERCA = sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2{alpha}.
