Mevalonate pathway inhibitors reversed fractionated-radiation–induced suppression of KLF2 and its downstream target molecules. Representative Western blot analysis and quantification of KLF2, TM, and eNOS 4 h after exposure to five fractions of 2 Gy (a) in presence or absence of atorvastatin (1 μM) or GT3 (5 μM) and (b) in presence or absence of GGTi (10 μM) (n = 3). β-actin served as a loading control. (n, number of independent experiments performed; a, significant statistical difference between nonirradiated and irradiated groups; b, significant statistical difference between fractionated irradiation and single exposure; *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01; ***, p < 0.001).
