Figure Lengend Snippet: FIGURE 9 | Effect of Cur20 on the HIF-1α/VEGF/TFEB pathway. A–E, The protein levels of HIF-1α, NF-κB, VEGF, and TFEB analyzed by western blot. F, The content and translocation of TFEB in nuclei observed by confocal microscopy with immunofluorescence. rBMECs were pretreated with Cur20 for 2 h then treated with OGD for 4 h. L, M, or H represents the concentration of Cur20 as 0.1, 1, 10 μM, respectively. In the immunofluorescence experiment, the concentration of Cur20 was 10 μM. The experimental data was expressed by mean ± SD, n 3.*p < 0.05 vs. control group, #p < 0.05 vs. Model group.
