Guanxinping Tablets Inhibit ET-1-Induced Proliferation and Migration of MOVAS by Suppressing Activated PI3K/Akt/NF-κB Signaling Cascade
Figure 3
Effects of GXP on the proliferation and migration of MOVAS. (a) CCK-8 assay showed that GXP inhibited the excessive proliferation of MOVAS which was raised by ET-1 while GXP had no effect on the physiological group; (b) wound-healing assay showed that GXP inhibited the excessive migration of MOVAS which was raised by ET-1. But GXP had no effect on the physiological group 200x. (A) Pictures taken in wound-healing assay. In the physiological group, other groups were compared with the control group, and in the pathological group, other groups were compared with the model group (ET-1 group). (B) 24 h relative migration rate of MOVAS; (C) 48 h relative migration rate of MOVAS, , compared with the model group (ET-1 group).
