HSP27 Inhibits Homocysteine-Induced Endothelial Apoptosis by Modulation of ROS Production and Mitochondrial Caspase-Dependent Apoptotic Pathway

Figure 1

Hcy increased HSP27 expression in HUVECs. (a) Western blot analyses of the HSP27 protein levels in Hcy-treated HUVECs. Cells were treated with the indicated concentration of Hcy for 24 h; then, they were harvested and whole-cell extracts were prepared and probed for HSP27. (b) The relative protein levels were normalized to β-actin. Data are expressed as mean ± SD of three independent experiments. compared with the control.
