Figure 7. Thrombin and neurosin increase astrocyte STAT3 signaling in a PAR1-dependent manner.
Treatment of astrocytes with (A) thrombin or (C) neurosin (150 ng/ml) for 24 h resulted in a significant increase in pSTAT3 in PAR1+/+, but not PAR1−/− astrocytes (B and D show corresponding signal for total STAT3 in each case). (*P < 0.05, Students t-test).
