Figure Lengend Snippet: SIRT1-modified hUCMSCs attenuated EMT in PD-induced peritoneal damage. a Immunohistochemical analyses of α-SMA expression in peritoneal tissues (bar 200 μm). b Accumulation of α-SMA-positive area of a . qRT-PCR was used to measure the mRNA levels of α-SMA ( c ), Fibronectin ( d ), Col III ( e ), Snail ( f ), and Calretinin ( g ) in the peritoneal omentum tissues from the indicated groups. h Western blot was used to measure the protein levels of Fibronectin, α-SMA, Snail, and Calretinin in the indicated conditions, and the relative expressions were normalized to control ( i ). Data are presented as mean ± SD. n = 8 for each group. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, and *** p < 0.001 between the indicated groups
