KLF2 overexpression activities Nrf2 expression and enhances autophagy in ox-LDL-induced HUVECs and THP-1 macrophage derived foam cells. The expression of Nrf2 and autophagy-related proteins in (A) ox-LDL induced HUVECs and (B) THP-1 macrophages transfected with pcDNA3.1-KLF2 was analyzed by western blotting. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001. KLF2, Krüppel like transcription factor 2; ox-LDL, oxidized low-density lipoprotein; HUVECs, human umbilical vein endothelial cells; NC, negative control.
