Expression levels of Ngn1 and BMP4 protein in NSCs following transfection with recombinant plasmid for 48 h. (A) Detection of Ngn1 and BMP4 protein levels by western blot analysis. β-actin was the internal standard. (B) Ngn1β-actin and BMP4β-actin protein optical density ratios were analyzed in each group. **P<0.01 vs. CON group; ##P<0.01 vs. NC+N group; §§P<0.01 vs. NC+HIBD group. Ngn1, neurogenin 1; BMP4, bone morpho-genetic protein 4; NSC, neural stem cell; CON, blank control group; NC, negative control plasmid-transfected cells; N, normal brain tissue; HIBD, hypoxic-ischemic brain damage tissue; siNSC, β-catenin small interfering RNA-transfected cell.
