BMSC-Derived Exosomes Ameliorate LPS-Induced Acute Lung Injury by miR-384-5p-Controlled Alveolar Macrophage Autophagy

Figure 8

Exosomes increased miR-384-5p and reduced Beclin-1 in lung tissue of ALI rats. (a) The relative levels of miR-384-5p in lung tissues were detected by RT-qPCR. (b, c) The protein levels of Beclin-1 in lung tissues were detected by western blot. β-Actin levels were measured to ensure equal protein loading. (d) The protein levels of Beclin-1 in lung tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry (×200 magnification). Values obtained from three independent experiments are expressed as and compared using ANOVA followed by LSD test. vs. the sham group; vs. the sham group; # vs. the LPS group; ## vs. the LPS group.
