Genetic depletion of MDM2 attenuates high glucose-induced collagen III, fibronectin accumulation and cell proliferation in GMCs. (A) Representative western blot images and (B) summarized data showing the interfere effect of three different sequence siRNA oligonucleotides targeting MDM2 n = 3. (C) Representative western blot images and (D) summarized data showing that depletion MDM2 by siRNA partially attenuates collagen III and fibronectin accumulation in high glucose-stimulated HBZY-1 cells n = 6. (E) BrdU summarized data showing that high glucose-induced cell proliferation is inhibited by MDM2 genetic depletion n = 6. Scra: scramble shRNA; siMDM2: MDM2 siRNA. * P < 0.05 vs. Ctrl + Scra; # P < 0.05 vs. HG + Scra.
