Article Title: Knockdown of ALOX15 alleviates acute coronary syndrome via the FGFR2/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway
doi: 10.3892/br.2025.2092
Figure Lengend Snippet: Silencing of ALOX15 mitigates acute coronary syndrome progression in vitro through the FGFR2/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. (A) The expression of FGFR2 in HCAECs after transfection with OE-FGFR2 or OE-NC was detected by RT-qPCR. (B) The mRNA expression of ALOX15 and FGFR2 in HCAECs following different treatments was detected by RT-qPCR. (C) The protein levels of FGFR2, PI3K, p-PI3K, AKT and p-AKT in HCAECs following various treatments were determined by western blotting. (D, E) The migration of HCAECs following different treatments was assessed by scratch wound healing assays. Scale bar, 100 µm. (F) The viability of HCAECs following various treatments was measured by Cell Counting Kit-8 assays. * P<0.05, ** P<0.01 and *** P<0.001. ALOX15, 12/15-lipoxygenase; FGFR2, fibroblast growth factor receptor 2; HCAECs, human primary coronary artery endothelial cells; OE, overexpression; NC, negative control; RT-qPCR, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR; siRNA, small interfering RNA; p-, phosphorylated; NS, not significant.
