Diabetes induced aortic apoptosis and proliferation increased. The apoptotic cell was examined by TUNEL staining (A), followed with semi-quantitative analysis. And the proliferation of aortic tunica media was examined by immunohistochemical staining for ki-67 positive cells (B), followed with semi-quantitative analysis. Data were presented as means ± SD (n = 6).*, p < 0.05 vs. Corresponding Control; #, p < 0.05 vs. Corresponding DM. Bar = 50 μM.
