The Alteration of HDL in Patients with AMI Inhibited Angiogenesis by Blocking ERK1/2 Activation

Figure 4

(a) Original image of angiogenesis by matrix gel; (b) number of vessels converted from angiogenesis image; (c) conversion of angiogenesis to vessel length. Although VEGF and HDL can stimulate HUVEC angiogenesis, the ability to stimulate HUVEC angiogenesis of pHDL was weaker than nHDL. Preincubation of PD98059 (inhibitor of ERK1/2) can partly block the effect of HDL on HUVEC migration. Data are , vs. control; ^#vs. nHDL, , .
