Figure Lengend Snippet: A , Relative mRNA expression profiles of cGAS-STING pathway genes ( cGAS, STING, IRF3, IRF7, IFIT1, IFIT2, IFIT3 and CXCL10 ) in total lung tissues from PH patients and healthy controls (n=5-11). B , Protein expression levels of STING in the total lung tissues of PH patients and healthy controls (n=4). C , Representative colocalization staining of STING (red), vWF (red) and α-SMA (green) in pulmonary arteries of healthy controls and PH patients (n=4), Scale bar=20μm. D , Protein expression levels of STING in PAECs and PASMCs (n=4). E, Relative mRNA expression of STING in PAEC exposure to 1% O 2 hypoxia for 24h (n=4). F, Relative mRNA expression of Sting in lung microvascular endothelial cells from hypoxia and SuHx mouse PH models (n=4). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. * P <0.05, ** P <0.01, *** P <0.01. Statistical analysis was done using Unpaired t test for A, B, D, and E. Statistical analysis was done using One-way ANOVA for F.
