Fig. 1From: LncRNA HOTAIR facilitates high glucose-induced mesangial cell proliferation, fibrosis and oxidative stress in diabetic nephropathy via regulating miR-147a/WNT2B axisHG induced HMC proliferation, fibrosis and oxidative stress. HMC was cultured under HG treatment or NG treatment. A CCK8 assay was used to measure HMC viability. B, C EDU staining was performed to evaluate the percentage of EDU positive cells. D–G The protein levels of PCNA, CyclinD1, fibronectin, collagen I and α-SMA were determined by WB analysis. H–J The ROS level, SOD activity and MDA level were examined by corresponding Assay Kits. *P < 0.05Back to article page
