Effects of CRP/oxLDL/β2GPI on inflammatory cytokines in the aortas. Extracts of protein from the NC and diabetes animals were added into each well of Protein chip. A laser scanner (Scan-array Gx, PerkinElmer) was used to read the signals for each spot. The relative fold differences in the cytokine amount were determined by an analysis tool (Raybio, USA). A: Protein chip images. Red: positive control; black: bFGF; yellow: IGF-II; pink: IL-1; blue: IL-9; green: PF-4; white: negative control. B: IL-1, IL-9, bFGF, IGF-II and PF-4 average relative optical density in the aortas.
