Acarbose Accelerates Wound Healing via Akt/eNOS Signaling in db/db Mice

Figure 5

Acarbose stimulated the expression levels of activated Akt/eNOS in BM-EPCs from db/db mice. BM-EPCs were isolated and cultured from anesthetized mice. Akt and eNOS in BM-EPCs were conducted by western blotting, and acarbose greatly enhanced activated Akt and eNOS expression in BM-EPCs from db/db mice. , versus Con; versus db/db. Values are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation ( per group). Con, control; Aca, acarbose.
