GLP-1 Analogue Liraglutide Enhances SP-A Expression in LPS-Induced Acute Lung Injury through the TTF-1 Signaling Pathway

Figure 10

Liraglutide increased the expression of SP-A and TTF-1 in rat ATII cells. ShRNA-TTF-1-transfected and nontransfected ATII cells were pretreated with liraglutide (100 nM) for 4 h and then stimulated with LPS (100 ng/mL) for 4 h. (a and c) QPCR was used to analyze the mRNA expression of SP-A and TTF-1. (b and d) Western blot was performed to analyze the protein expression of SP-A and TTF-1. Quantitative data were presented as (). compared with control. compared with LPS. compared with LPS+Lira+shRNA-TTF-1.
