Figure Lengend Snippet: High glucose induces cAMP-responsive element-binding protein 3 Like 3 expression and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition in SV-HUC-1 cells. A: Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was employed to assess the viability of SV-HUC-1 cells following treatment with varying concentrations of glucose; B: Relative mRNA expression of cAMP-responsive element-binding protein 3 Like 3 (CREB3 L3) in SV-HUC-1 cells after treating with different levels of glucose, as detected by quantitative PCR; C: Relative mRNA expression of CREB3 L3 in SV-HUC-1 cells with or without silencing of CREB3 L; D: SV-HUC-1 cells were treated with 5 mmol/L and 15 mmol/L glucose for 72 hours with and without CREB3 L3 knockdown (KD). Protein expression of CREB3 L3, C-reactive protein (CRP), vimentin, N-cadherin, E-cadherin, and occludin in SV-HUC-1 cells in the control (Con), high glucose (HG), HG + small interfering RNA negative control (si-NC), and HG + KD group. Each group contained three biological replicates. a P < 0.05 vs 5 mmol/L group, b P < 0.01 vs 5 mmol/L group; c P < 0.001 vs 5 mmol/L group, d P < 0.05 vs si-NC group, e P < 0.01 vs si-NC group, f P < 0.001 vs si-NC group, g P < 0.01 vs Con group, h P < 0.001 vs Con group, i P < 0.01 vs HG + si-NC group, j P < 0.001 vs HG + si-NC group.
