Figure Lengend Snippet: PFOR of 120 kDa was revealed upon SDS-PAGE and immunobloting of crude extracts from SNP-treated and control trophozoites (4, 2 and 1×10 4 cells). The loaded amount of proteins for each condition is evidenced by actin (43 kDa) immunodetection on the same western blot. Quantification of signal emission did not reveal differences between the tested conditions in 3 independent experiments.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of glucose on the mRNA expression of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components. Elevated concentrations of glucose did not alter the mRNA levels of (A) angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), (B) angiotensin II type 1b receptor (AT1bR), or (C) angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2R) mRNA levels in BRIN-BD11 cells after 24 h, whereas the levels of (D) ACE2, (E) neutral endopeptidase 24.11 (NEP), (F) Mas, (G) aminopeptidase A (APA), (H) aminopeptidase N (APN) and (I) insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) were dose-dependently increased. mRNA levels were determined by quantitative PCR. Data were evaluated and normalized to Rpl13a mRNA expression using the ΔΔ Cq method. Data are presented as box plots with medians, quartiles and an interquartile range (IQR) ± 1.5 × IQR of 5 independent experiments [Mann-Whitney * P<0.05, ** P<0.01, vs. control (Co.)].

doi: 10.3892/ijmm.2013.1469

Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of glucose on enzymatic activities of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) proteases. Exposure of BRIN-BD11 cells to elevated concentrations of glucose led to increased enzymatic activities of (A) angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)2, (B) aminopeptidase A (APA), (C) aminopeptidase N (APN) and (D) insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) after 24 h. Protease activities were determined by the incubation of viable cells with chromogenic or fluorogenic (ACE2) substrates. The activities were calculated per one million cells. Illustrated are boxplots with medians, quartiles and an interquartile range (IQR) ± 1.5 × IQR of 4 independent experiments [Mann-Whitney ** P<0.01, * P<0.05, vs. control (Co.)].
