Effect of Cx43–siRNA on Ang II-induced-proliferation of VSMCs and expression of cyclin E protein. After transfection with Cx43-siRNA and control-siRNA, VSMCs were treated with Ang II (10−7 mol/L) for 24 h. (A) BrdU incorporation into VSMC was inhibited by transfection with Cx43-siRNA. (B) Cell number of VSMC was significantly decreased by transfection with Cx43-siRNA. (C) Expression of cyclin E was inhibited by transfection of the cells with Cx43-siRNA. Values are mean± SE for three independent experiments.
