The mRNA expression of Nrf2, HO-1, caspase-3, caspase-9, bcl-2 as well as bax in rats of every group 6 h following CME modeling. AAV-Nrf2(CME): rats injected Nrf2 undergone CME operation; AAV-control (CME): rats injected AAV-control undergone CME operation; a Nrf2, b bax, c caspase-3, d HO-1, e bcl-2, f caspase-9.CME: coronary microembolization; Nrf 2: nuclear factor erythroid 2-like; AAV: adeno-associated virus; Data is shown as Mean ± SD. a: P < 0.05 contrasted with sham; b: P < 0.05 contrasted with CME or AAV-control (CME)
