HMGB1 Modulates High Glucose-Induced Erroneous Differentiation of Tendon Stem/Progenitor Cells through RAGE/β-Catenin Pathway
Figure 6
Inhibition of RAGE ameliorates high glucose-induced erroneous differentiation of TSPCs. (a) Representative images of ARS staining of TSPCs cultured with FPS-ZM1 (10 μM) during osteogenic induction under high glucose. (b) Quantification of ARS bound to the calcium nodules in TSPCs cultured with FPS-ZM1. (c–e) Relative mRNA levels of osteogenic genes in TSPCs cultured with FPS-ZM1 during osteogenic induction by qRT-PCR. (f–h) Relative mRNA levels of tendon-related genes in TSPCs cultured with FPS-ZM1 by qRT-PCR. A–E × 1; F–J × 40. .
