COX-2 Regulates the Proliferation and Apoptosis of Activated Hepatic Stellate Cells through CDC27
Figure 3
Knockdown of COX-2 suppressed stellate cell proliferation and induced cell apoptosis. (a) MTT assay for relative cell proliferation rate of HSCs after COX-2 knockdown. (b) Cell cycle analysis for cultured HSCs after COX-2 knockdown. (c) Flow cytometry approach for measuring changes in apoptotic rate after COX-2 knockdown. ; ; and ns: no significant difference, compared with the sh-NC group.
