Fig. 1From: Short-term high glucose exposure impairs insulin signaling in endothelial cellsAdministration of high glucose for 24 h enhanced phosphor-Ser473AKT and attenuated phospho-Ser1177eNOS in HUVECs. Whole cell lysates were prepared from confluent HUVECs exposed to 5 mmol/L (NG) or 25 mmol/L (HG) glucose for 24 h. AKT and eNOS phosphorylations were assayed for Western Blot analysis. The panels show representative images of different independent experiments. Densitometric values were normalized to total amounts of AKT and eNOS, respectively. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 HG vs. NG. Bars represent mean ± SEM for five independent experimentsBack to article page
