Effect of HMGB1 on proliferation of RASMCs. A. Representative western blot analysis for PCNA protein. The primary RASMCs were treated with the indicated concentrations of HMGB1 (100-1000 ng/ml) for 48 h. GAPDH was selected to normalize the PCNA level. *P < 0.05 vs. Control cells; #P < 0.05 vs the RASMCs treated with HMGB1 100 ng/ml. B. Effect of HMGB1 on RASMCs proliferation detected by the CCK-8 assay. The primary RASMCs were treated with HMGB1 for 48 h. *P < 0.05 vs. Control cells; #P < 0.05 vs. the RASMCs treated with HMGB1 100 ng/ml. C. The RASMCs were treated with HMGB1 1000 ng/ml for 0, 12, 24, 48 h. *: P < 0.05 vs. unstimulated cells at 0 h; #: P < 0.05 vs the RASMCs treated with HMGB1 for 12 h; &: P < 0.05 vs the RASMCs treated with HMGB1 for 24 h. D. Cell viability was detected by trypan blue staining. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM from four independent experiments.
