Fig. 1From: Proteome-scale profiling reveals MAFF and MAFG as two novel key transcription factors involved in palmitic acid-induced umbilical vein endothelial cell apoptosisEstablishment of the HUVEC apoptosis model to simulate the initiation process of atherosclerosis. Representative flow cytometric analysis showing the apoptosis of HUVECs in the control group (a, d, g), group 1 (b, e, h), and group 2 (c, f, i). j Quantitative analysis of the increased early apoptosis percentage in HUVECs treated with various concentrations of PA (n = 3). Control group: 0 μM PA. Group 1: 300 μM PA. Group 2: 500 μM PA. ** indicates 0.001 < P < 0.01Back to article page
