Effect of STAT3/mTOR pathway on apoptosis of injured mesangial cells. The glomerular mesangial cells were randomly divided into control group, model group (2 μM folic acid was added to the cells to prepare the folate induced injury model); and STAT3 inhibitor group (folate-induced injury model was treated with 5 μM STAT3 inhibitor S3I-201) and then cell apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry using Annexin V-FITC and Propidium Iodide (A). Quantification of cell apoptosis was shown in panel (B). Compared with the control group, *P < 0.05; compared with the model group, #P < 0.05.
