Figure 3. The effect of NOXA on fibroblast apoptosis.

Figure 3

(A) Western blot was performed to test the expression of NOXA and the apoptotic markers (cleaved PARP and Bax) in NOXA knockdown fibroblasts applied with or without HCPT. β-actin was used as a loading control. Statistical analysis was performed to analyse the band intensities of NOXA, cleaved-PARP and Bax/Bcl-2. The data were from three independent experiments. *P < 0.05 versus the control group. (B) TUNEL assay was used to detect the apoptotic rate of fibroblasts following NOXA gene deletion in fibroblasts treated with or without HCPT, (C) and the data are shown in the bar graph.
