[Retracted] circ_0041795 Induces YAP1 Upregulation to Accelerate the Progression of Diabetic Retinopathy through Binding to miR-589-5p

Figure 3

circ_0041795 regulated HG-induced cell injury via targeting miR-589-5p. ARPE-19 cells were treated with NG, HG, HG+si-NC, HG+si-circ_0041795, HG+si-circ_0041795+anti-miR-NC, or HG+si-circ_0041795+anti-miR-589-5p. (a) RT-qPCR was used for miR-589-5p quantification. (b) CCK-8 assay was used to determine cell viability. (c) EdU assay was used to examine cell proliferation. (d, e) Flow cytometry was used to measure cell apoptosis. (f) Western blot was used to detect PCNA and Bax levels. (g, h) ELISA was used to assess inflammatory response. (i, j) SOD activity and MDA level were detected to evaluate oxidative injury. Two-way ANOVA was used in (f), and Student’s -test was used in other graphs. , , , and .
