Effect of radiation in the presence or not of melatonin 1 mM on the genes selected for analysis by specific RT-PCR: (A) FGFR3, IGF-1, JAG1, TGFα, KDR, and ANPEP as angiogenic growth factors, (B) MMP14 and TIMP1 as extracellular matrix molecules, (C) CXCL6, NOS3, CCL2, ERK1, ERK2, and AKT1 as cytokines and other angiogenic factors. Data are expressed as the percentage of the control group (Mean ± SEM). C, control; M, melatonin; and R, radiation. a, p < 0.05 vs C; b, p < 0.001 vs C; c, p < 0.05 vs R; and d, p < 0.001 vs R.
