Liraglutide Improves Endothelial Function via the mTOR Signaling Pathway

Figure 4

HUVECs were administered liraglutide at 100 nM in the absence or presence of Akt inhibitor IV for 60 min. Phosphorylation of hTERT was assessed by Western blot (a). The expression levels of nuclear hTERT were evaluated by Western blot (b). Nuclear telomerase activity in HUVECs was assessed by ELISA. Data are (). vs. the control group (c).
