FGF21 promotes cell survival upon hypoxia stress in CMECs. (A) The cell viability of CMECs under the condition of normoxia and hypoxia (1% O2) with FGF21 treatment (50 nM) or vehicle for 8 h. **p < 0.01 vs. Veh. N = 8. (B) The LDH content in the culture medium of CMECs under the condition of normoxia and hypoxia (1% O2) with FGF21 treatment (50 nM) or vehicle for 8 h. **p < 0.01 vs. Veh. N = 8. The CMECs cultured in normoxia condition were also used as a control. Veh, vehicle. For N = 8, experiments were conducted in eight different wells of cultured cells.
