Figure Lengend Snippet: IR-Induced Lung EndMT Accompanies the Development of RILI in vitro . (A) HUVECs Were Exposed to 0 or 10 Gy X-rays. The Tube-formation Capacity of HUVECs was Investigated at 2 h after Irradiation. Scale Bar = 500 μm. (B) HUVECs Were Exposed to 0, 2, 5 or 10 Gy X-rays. Representative Images Showing the Cell Morphology are provided at 72 h after Irradiation. Scale Bar = 200 μm. (C) HUVECs Were Exposed to 0 or 10 Gy X-rays. The Cell Morphology was Observed at 24, 48 and 72 h After Irradiation. Scale bar = 200 μm. (D) HUVECs Were Exposed to 0, 2, 5 or 10 Gy X-rays. The Distribution of Phalloidin in HUVECs was Detected by Immunofluorescence at 72 h after Irradiation. Scale bar = 20 μm. (E) HUVECs Were Exposed to 0 or 10 Gy X-rays. The Distribution of Phalloidin in HUVECs was Detected at 0.5, 6, 24, 48 and 72 h after Irradiation. Scale Bar = 20 μm. (F) HUVECs Were Exposed to 0, 2, 5 or 10 Gy X-Rays. The Protein Expression of Vimentin, α-SMA and CD31 in HUVECs was Examined by Western Blot at 72 h after Irradiation. (G) Quantitative Analyses of CD31, Vimentin and α-SMA Protein Levels (n = 3; Mean ± SEM; * P < 0.05 or ** P < 0.01 Compared With the Control Group; One-Way ANOVA Test of Variance). (H) HUVECs Were Exposed to 0 or 10 Gy X-rays. The Protein Expression of EndMT-Related Markers in HUVECs was Detected at 0.5, 6, 24, 48 and 72 h after Irradiation. (I) Quantitative Analyses of CD31, Vimentin and α-SMA Protein Levels (n = 3; Mean ± SEM; * P < 0.05 or ** P < 0.01 Compared With the Control Group; One-Way ANOVA Test of Variance). (J) HUVECs Were Exposed to 0, 2, 5 or 10 Gy X-rays. The Expression of CD31 was Examined by Immunofluorescence at 72 h After Irradiation. Scale Bar = 20 μm. (K) HUVECs Were Exposed to 0 or 10 Gy X-rays. The Expression of CD31 was Examined at 0.5, 6, 24, 48 and 72 h After Irradiation. Scale Bar = 20 μm
