Circular RNA circPHKA2 Relieves OGD-Induced Human Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cell Injuries through Competitively Binding miR-574-5p to Modulate SOD2

Figure 2

circPHKA2 prompted proliferation, migration, and neovascularization of HBMEC after OGD. (a) qPCR detected relative circPHKA2 expression in HBMEC administrated with oe-circPHKA2 or NC. (b–e) OGD-induced HBMEC were pretransfected with oe-circPHKA2 or NC, compared with control HBMEC transfected with NC. (b) EdU assay determined percentage of EdU+ cells. (c) CCK-8 assay measured percentage of cell viability. (d) Transwell assay confirmed number of migratory cells per field (×100). (e) Tube formation assay determined percentage of tube formation. .
