Figure Lengend Snippet: OGD/R treatment decreases HBMVEC viability and upregulates Circ VRK1 expression. A the viability of HBMVECs exposed to OGD for 2 h, 4 h and 8 h detected by CCK8 assay. B The cytotoxicity of HBMVECs exposed to OGD for 2 h, 4 h and 8 h measured by LDH release assay. C circRNA microarray analysis of differentially expressed circRNAs in cells exposed to OGD/R. D circ_0000566 expression changes in HBMVECs exposed to OGD for 2 h, 4 h and 8 h by RT-qPCR. E The genome position and source genes of circ_0000566 queried in circBase. F the localization of Circ VRK1 in HBMVECs determined by subcellular fractionation. G PCR validation of Circ VRK1 siRNA transfection efficiency in HBMVEC. Error bars represented the mean ± SD from 3 independent experiments. Unpaired t test ( G ) and one-way ( A – D ) or two-way ANOVA ( F ) were used
Article Snippet: The enriched circRNA was then amplified, and the labeled cRNA was hybridized to an Arraystar circRNA array (8 × 15k, Arraystar) using a random primer method (Arraystar Super RNA Labeling Kit; Arraystar).
