Figure 2From: Liraglutide attenuates high glucose-induced abnormal cell migration, proliferation, and apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells by activating the GLP-1 receptor, and inhibiting ERK1/2 and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways Liraglutide (LIRA) inhibited high glucose (HG)-induced proliferation in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells. Cell proliferation was determined using Cell Counting Kit-8. All results are presented as mean ± standard deviation from three independent experiments; * p < 0.01 vs. control; # p < 0.01 vs. HG. MG = mannitol, osmotic control; OD = optical density.Back to article page
