doi: 10.1101/2025.03.11.642511
Figure Lengend Snippet: A) Western blotting demonstrates that CEPT1 content is increased in ECs isolated from Cept1 fl/fl Cre + mice. Representative blots of VEGF2R, PPAR α , ACOX1, p-Akt, t-Akt and p-eNOS, t-eNOS are also provided. B) Quantitative representation of protein content relative to GAPDH as a loading control (n=3). C) RT-PCR analysis demonstrates Cept1 is overexpressed in ECs isolated from Cept1 fl/fl Cre + mice (n=3). Gene expression of Pparα, Acox1 , Vegfa, and Vegf2r is also provided (n=3). D) Western blotting demonstrates that CEPT1 content is increased in HUVECs transduced with Cept1 lentiviral particles (MOI 5). Representative blots of VEGF2R, PPAR α , ACOX1, p-AKT, t-AKT and p-eNOS, t-eNOS are also provided. E) Quantitative representation of protein content relative to GAPDH as a loading control (n=3). F) RT-PCR analysis demonstrates Cept1 is overexpressed in transduced ECs (n=3). Gene expression of Pparα, Acox1 , Vegfa, and Vegf2r is also provided (n=3). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. * p<0.05; ** p<0.01; *** p<0.001. p values were from 1-way ANOVA and unpaired Student t -test.
