Figure 7. Effect of hyperglycemia on the expression of syndecan-2 and syndecan-4 in RRMEC.
Treatment with high glucose for 6 days led to a significant increase in mRNA levels of both (A) syndecan-2 (**p<0.01, n=6) and (B) syndecan-4 (*p<0.05, n=6) in RRMEC. (C) A significant increase in the protein intensity of syndecan-4 in RRMEC exposed to high glucose (**p<0.01, n=3) was observed following analysis using mass spectrometry.
