Expression of NF-κB related angiogenic factors induced by L64.

Notes: The left tibialis anterior (TA) muscles were injected with saline or L64 and separated 3 days later. Expressions of the angiogenic factors were tested using qPCR and presented as the relative values compared with those in the saline groups. (A) mRNA levels of VEGF. (B) mRNA levels of IL-6. (C) mRNA levels of MMP-2. (D) mRNA levels of MMP-9. *P<0.05 versus the saline group. n=6. Pluronic^® L64 (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA).

Abbreviations: NF-κB, nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells; L64, Pluronic^® L64; VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor; IL-6, interleukin 6; MMP-2, matrix metallopeptidase 2; MMP-9, matrix metallopeptidase 9; qPCR, quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
