[Retracted] ALK7 Knockdown Plays a Protective Role on HG-Stimulated MCs through Activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway

Figure 4

Knockdown of ALK7 inhibits the production of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in HG-stimulated MCs. (a–c) The mRNA levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in MCs were measured by RT-qPCR. (d–f) The contents of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 were determined by ELISA. vs. NG group. ^# vs. .
