QSYQ attenuated cardiac apoptosis. a Western blot showed that expression of MDM2 was down-regulated and expressions of FasL and P53 were up-regulated in the model group compared with those in the sham group. After treatments with aspirin and QSYQ, expression of MDM2 was elevated and expressions of FasL and P53 were reduced, as compared with those in model group. Figure (b), (c) and (d) were relative quantitative illustrations of expressions of FasL, MDM2 and P53 in the four groups of rats (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, other groups vs. model group, n = 8)
