BCL2 and Sepsis: We measured the expression of the proteins Bax, Bcl-2, Cleaved-Caspase 3, Cleaved-Caspase 9, Cytochrome C, and Cleaved-PARP by western blot and the apoptotic state by TUNEL staining in the myocardium of different groups over the course of five time points (12h, 1d, 2d, 3d and 5d) to explore the effect of XBJ on cardiomyocyte apoptosis during sepsis.
