Figure 4. — Effects of atorvastatin on PAF-R mRNA expression in HMCs. Detection of PAF-R gene expression in HMCs was detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Group A, control (5.5 mmol/l D-glucose); Group B, HG+LPC group (30 mmol/l D-glucose+20 mg/l LPC); Group C, atorvastatin group (30 mmol/l D-glucose+20 mg/l LPC+10 µmol/l atorvastatin). Data represents the mean ± standard error of three independent experiments.*P<0.05 vs. group A; ^※P<0.05 vs. group B. PAF-R, platelet-activating factor-receptor; HMCs, human mesangial cells; HG, high glucose; LPC, lysophosphatidylcholine.
