Figure 6. — SMOC1 silencing affects the BMP2/Smad pathway. Western blot analysis was performed to measure the expression levels of BMP2, Smad2 and p-Smad2 in MFBs, MFBs transfected with an empty vector, and Ang II-induced MFBs transfected with an empty vector or si-SMOC1. **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001 vs. NC; ^{^}P<0.05 vs. Ang II+NC. SMOC1, SPARC-related modular calcium binding 1; BMP2, bone morphogenetic protein 2; p-, phosphorylated; MFBs, myocardial fibroblasts; si, small interfering RNA; Ang II, angiotensin II; NC, negative control.
