Knockdown of HSP72 abolishes the protection of FGF21 against hypoxia in CMECs. (A,B) The effects of siRNA targeting to HSP72 on the mRNA (A) and protein (B) expression of HSP72 in CMECs. *p < 0.05. N = 6. Actin was used as a loading control. (C,E) The cell viability (C), LDH release (D), and ROS (E) of normal or HSP72-knockdown CMECs under the condition of normoxia and hypoxia (1% O2) with FGF21 treatment (50 nM) for 8 h. *p < 0.05. N = 8. Veh, vehicle. For N = 6 or 8, experiments were conducted in eight different wells of cultured cells.
