FGF18 contributes to the repair of HUVECs. (A) HUVECs were subjected to western blotting analysis. The expression of VCAM-1, ICAM-1, IL-6, and TNF-α was detected. (n = 5 per group). (B) In vitro, scratch assay showing the changes in migration potential of HUVECs stimulated with LPS in the presence of FGF18. (n = 3 per group, Scale bar = 25 μm). (C) Immunofluorescent staining of ICAM-1 (red) and DAPI (blue) in HUVECs were detected. (n = 3 per group, Scale bar = 150 μm). (D) Immunofluorescent staining of VCAM-1 (red) and DAPI (blue) in HUVECs were detected. (n = 3 per group, Scale bar = 150 μm)
