Figure Lengend Snippet: Analysis of NFκB and STAT3 activation in human (HMEC-1) and mouse (MS1) microvascular endothelial cells after treatment with OA. a Activation of NFκB-p65 in HMEC-1 cells and b activation of NFκB-p65 in MS1 cells. c Activation of STAT3 in HMEC-1 and d activation of STAT3 in MS1 cells. Data are present as ratio of phosphorylated and total protein and normalized by actin. Cells were incubated with 100 nM OA for 3 and 6 h. LPS 500 ng/mL was used as positive control. Mean ± SEM from three independent replicates performed in duplicate. Statistical differences were assessed by one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s tests (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, **** p < 0.0001 compared to untreated control).
