HBO Alleviates Neural Stem Cell Pyroptosis via lncRNA-H19/miR-423-5p/NLRP3 Axis and Improves Neurogenesis after Oxygen Glucose Deprivation

Figure 5

lncRNA-H19/miR-423-5p/NLRP3 axis was involved in NSC pyroptosis following OGD. (a) NSCs transfected with either siRNA-NC or siRNA-H19 or siRNA-H19+miR-NC inhibitor or siRNA-H19+miR-423-5p inhibitor were exposed to OGD and followed by qPCR assay of NLRP3 mRNA. (b, c) WB detection and statistical analysis on the expression of NLRP3 protein in NSCs treated as above. (d, e) ELISA was performed to examine IL-1β and IL-18 released from NSCs which were treated with the same manners as above. vs. the Con group; vs. the OGD group; # vs. the OGD+siRNA-NC group; vs. the OGD+siRNA-H19 group; vs. the OGD+siRNA-H19+miR-423-5p inhibitor group.
