Figure 5

Argirein decreased O2−. production under high glucose. Typical representative fluorescent images for DHE staining (a) and summarized data (b) showing the roles of argirein (AR, 1 μM) and on O2−. production in RAECs incubated with high glucose (HG, 30 mM), and photographs were at 100 × magnification. Representative ESR spectrographs of O2−. trapped by CMH (c) and summarized data (d) showing O2−. production dependent on NADPH oxidase in the RAECs. *P < 0.05 vs. Vehl Ctrl; #P < 0.05 vs. HG alone treated group (n = 4).
