Figure Lengend Snippet: PGK1 activated UNC5CL-mediated inflammatory response in DKD (A) Heatmap showing the differentially expressed proteins in HK-2 cells ( n = 3). (B) Volcano plot showing the differentially expressed proteins in HK-2 cells. (C and D) Representative blots and quantitative analysis of GPX1 ( n = 4). (E) Effects of silencing UNC5CL on the protein expression of collagen I, 12-Lox, and IL-1β ( n = 3). (F) Effects of silencing PGK1 on the protein expression of UNC5CL, IκBα, P-IκBα, P-NF-κB, and P-JNK ( n = 3). (G) Effects of silencing PGK1 on the mRNA levels of CXCL1 , CXCL2 , CXCL3 , IL8 , CCL20 , TNFAIP3 , PLA2G4C , and TNFRSF9 ( n = 4). Data are represented as mean ± SD. Statistical significance was determined by unpaired Student’s t test or ANOVA. ∗ p < 0.05 vs. NG, control (Con) or HG + Con small interfering RNA (siRNA), † p < 0.05 vs. Control (Con) siRNA.
