Depletion of STAT3 induces the proliferation and inhibits the apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC)
(A) The STAT3 level was examined in VSMCs using qRT-PCR and western blotting. (B, C) VSMC proliferation was tested after STAT3 inhibition. (D, E) VSMC apoptosis in response to STAT3 suppression was assessed via detecting apoptosis-related proteins using TUNEL and western blotting. **P < 0.01.
