Figure 6. Dose-response effect of lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC) on biglycan and versican mRNA expression.

Figure 6

Effect of increasing concentrations (0-50 µM) of lysoPC on (A) biglycan and on (B) versican mRNA expression after incubation with quiescent and proliferating human aortic SMCs for 24 h. Normalized gene expression levels were given as the ratio between the mean value for target gene and that for the beta-actin in each sample. Data represent the mean±SD of measurements performed in triplicate in four different occasions. * P<0.01 versus quiescent; †P<0.01 versus basal.
