Influence of ADAM33 silencing on the proliferation of HASMCs. (A) The proliferation status of HASMCs in the blank control, LV-NC and LV-ADAM33-shRNA groups under an optical microscope (magnification, ×100). (B) Quantitative evaluation of the ODs for cellular proliferation in HASMCs in the blank control, LV-NC and LV-ADAM33-shRNA groups. The proliferative ability of HASMCs was evaluated. OD value was measured at 450 nm. *P<0.05. ADAM33, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase-33; HASMCs, human aortic smooth muscle cells; LV, lentiviral vector; NC, negative control; shRNA, short-hairpin RNA; OD, optical density.
