Fig. 6. Stat1 directly binds to the Runx2 promoter and contributes to PARP-1-mediated arteriosclerotic calcification.

Fig. 6

a Predicted Stat1 binding site (underlined) within the human Runx2 promoter. Mutants with deletion of the predicted binding site (Runx2-mut1, Runx2-mut2, and Runx2-mut3) are shown. b Luciferase activity assay was performed after transfection with the human Runx2 promoter or Runx2 promoter mutants in 293T cells (n = 5).*P< 0.01, vs. transfection with con siRNA. c ChIP assay to verify binding of Stat1 to the Runx2 promoter (n = 5). The statistical tests are justified as appropriate and meet the assumptions of the tests. The variance between the groups is similar.
