B-D Left ventricular LXRα expression in Wt and LXRα-Tg mice aged 12 weeks. (B) Western blot of LXRα in liver and LV tissue. Quantification of (C) mRNA expression (normalized to 36b4; n = 6-8/group, *P < 0.00001 versus Wt) and (D) protein expression (normalized to GAPDH; n = 4/group, *P = 0.0001 versus Wt).
