Figure 3

Effect of linagliptin on cardiac interstitial fibrosis (A), ED-1-positive cell numbers (B), and coronary arterial remodeling (C) of high salt-loaded DS rats. Each value represents mean ± SEM (n = 5-7 in Normal Na, n = 11 in Veh, n = 11 in Lin). Abbreviations used are the same as in Figure 1. Upper panels in (A), (B), and (C) indicate representative photomicrographs of cardiac sections stained with Sirius red, ED-1, and Sirius red, respectively.
