NBP inhibits ER stress in TG-treated endothelial cells. Endothelial cells were treated with TG or TG + NBP for 6 h. (A, B) Typical western blots of ER stress related proteins ATF-6, ATF-4, PDI, XBP-1, GRP78, Cleaved-caspase12 and CHOP in each group cells. TG activated ER stress which was inhibited by NBP in endothelial cells. (C, D) Quantification data of ER stress associated proteins in each group cells. # P<0.05 versus the TG group, * P < 0.05 versus the Control group. All experiments were performed in triplicate.
