Pinoresinol diglucoside alleviates oxLDL-induced inhibition of NO production. (a) The total NO metabolites levels in HUVECs treated with 40 μg/mL oxLDL and/or 1 μmol/L PD were measured using a commercial assay kit. (b) The mRNA levels of eNOS in HUVECs treated with 40 μg/mL oxLDL and/or 1 μmol/L PD were assessed by quantitative real-time PCR. Experiments were performed 3 independent times with 3 replications. compared to control cells; compared to oxLDL-treated cells.
