Article Title: Ionic Extracts of Magnesium Powders Promote In Vitro Lymphangiogenesis
doi: 10.3390/biomedicines14040913
Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of magnesium extracts on lymphangiogenesis-related gene and protein expression in LECs. ( A ) Relative Vegfa mRNA expression levels in LECs treated with Control, Mg (1:10), Mg (1:100), and Mg (1:1000), as determined by qRT-PCR. ( B ) Relative Vegfc mRNA expression levels in LECs under the same treatment conditions. ( C ) Representative Western blot images showing VEGFA and VEGFC protein expression in LECs after treatment with different concentrations of magnesium extracts, with GAPDH used as the internal loading control. ( D ) Additional Western blot analysis showing VEGFR3 protein expression under the same treatment conditions, with β-actin used as the internal loading control. Data in ( A , B ) are presented as the mean ± SD ( n = 3). Statistical analysis for ( A , B ) was performed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple-comparisons test. Statistical significance is indicated as * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01; ns, not significant.
