Fig. 3: Ang-(1-7) dose-dependently suppressed CIH-potentiated EMT and pulmonary fibrosis in LPS-induced human bronchial epithelial cells by mediating autophagy.

From: Exogenous Ang-(1-7) inhibits autophagy via HIF-1α/THBS1/BECN1 axis to alleviate chronic intermittent hypoxia-enhanced airway remodelling of asthma

A Immunofluorescence results of α-SMA in human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2b) with different dose of Ang-(1-7). B Quantitative analysis of α-SMA. C Immunofluorescence results of E-cadherin. D Quantitative analysis of E-cadherin. E Immunofluorescence results of Collagen IV. F Quantitative analysis of Collagen IV. G Western blot results of E-cadherin, Vimentin and Snail. H Western blot results of α-SMA, Collagen IV and Collagen I. I Western blot results of LC3B and p62. J Representative images of immunofluorescence staining of mRFP-GFP-LC3 in human bronchial epithelial cells. Representative profiles of autophagosomes (RFP + GFP + dots) and autolysosomes (RFP + GFP - dots). K Quantitative analysis of mRFP-GFP-LC3. Data are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 3).
