Figure 2.
BDNF increased MnSOD expression in EPCs. A and B: Human EPCs were treated with BDNF (50 or 100 ng/ml) in EBM2 for 24 h. Protein samples were subjected to Western blotting. Blots are representative of 3 independent experiments. B: Optical density analysis of MnSOD protein levels; n=3, *P<0.05, compared with control. C: cells were cultured in EBM2 for 15 h, then incubated with BDNF for 7.5 h, mRNA levels were measured by RT-PCR; n=3, *P<0.05, compared to non-treatment.
