Figure Lengend Snippet: Changes of BMP9 expression in liver after pulp opening in rats/mice. (A) Haematoxylin–eosin (HE) staining of mice pulpitis tissues (black arrows: inflammatory cell). (B) Expression of BMP9 in rat liver occurred mainly in the peripheral cells of the sinusoid (blue arrows); it decreased significantly at D1 and returned to normal at D3 and D7 (IHC). (C) At D1 after pulp opening, the expression of BMP9 in mice liver of the PO group decreased significantly, but there was no significant change in the PC or AN groups (blue arrows) (IHC). (D) At D3 after pulp opening, the expression of BMP9 in liver tissue of mice in PO group increased, returning to the normal level, whereas there was no significant change in other groups (IHC). (E) RT-qPCR results showed that BMP9 gene expression began to decline at 6 hours after pulp opening and reached its lowest level at D1, before returning to normal levels. (F and G) WB results showed that the expression of BMP9 protein decreased at D1 after pulp opening and increased at D3. (H) ELISA showed that BMP9 levels in the blood of mice decreased at D1 and rose at D3. AN, anaesthetic; D, day; NS, normal sample; PC, pulp capping; PO, pulp opening.
