Effect of low expression of PTEN on HUVECs treated with ox-LDL. (A) The expression of PTEN in HUVECs knocked down by si-PTEN detected by RT-qPCR. (B) The effect of PTEN knockdown on HUVECs proliferation detected by cloning assay. (C) The effect of PTEN knockdown on HUVECs migration detected by wound healing assay. (D) The effect of PTEN knockdown on HUVECs invasion detected by Transwell assay. (E) The effect of PTEN knockdown on HUVECs apoptosis detected by Flow cytometry. (F) The effect of PTEN knockdown on HUVECs angiogenic ability detected by tube formation assay. Magnification, 200×. **P<0.01. PTEN, phosphatase and tensin homolog; HUVECs, human umbilical vein endothelial cells; ox-LDL, oxidized low-density lipoproteins; si, short interfering; RT-q-PCR, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR; NC, negative control.
