Carnosine modulates the expression of PKC/ERK mRNA in RVECs. The expression of (A) PKC and (B) ERK mRNA were determined via reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction following treatment with or without PD98059, U46619 and carnosine. Expression was normalized to GAPDH and quantified. All measurements are presented as the mean ± standard error of the mean from three independent experiments. *P<0.05 vs. NC Control; #P<0.05 vs. NC PD98059; +P<0.05 vs. U46619; ^P<0.05 vs. DM Control; &P<0.05 vs. DM PD98059; @P<0.05 vs. DM U46619. PKC, protein kinase C; ERK, extracellular signal related kinase; RVEC, retinal vascular endothelial cells; NC, negative control; DM, diabetes mellitus.
