Effects of Saccharides from Arctium lappa L. Root on FeCl3-Induced Arterial Thrombosis via the ERK/NF-κB Signaling Pathway

Figure 3

The protective effects of ALR-S in FeCl3-injured HAECs. HAECs were preincubated with different doses of ALR-S (0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 mg/ml) or serum-free medium for 4 h and then stimulated with 0.4 mM FeCl3 for 2 h. (a) TEM observation of HAEC morphology (A–C, 1 μm; D–F, 500 nm). A and D, control group; B and E, FeCl3 group; C and F, ALR-S (0.4 mg/ml) group. (b) Platelet fluorescence intensity, . (c, d) The vWF and 6-keto-PGF1α levels in HAEC culture medium, . (e) Protein expression level of PECAM-1, TFPI, TF, and TM in HAECs, . # and ## compared to the control group; and compared to the FeCl3 group.
