Fig. 4From: Peptide hormone ELABELA promotes rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell proliferation and migration by manipulating the cell cycle through the PI3K/AKT pathway under the hypoxia and ischemia microenvironmentELA activates the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in RAT BM-MSCs under H/I conditions for 24 h. The treatment time of ELA (at a concentration of 5 μM) was 12 h prior to H/I injury. A The representative blots showed the protein level of total-AKT and p-AKT (Ser 473) in RAT BM-MSCs. B The quantitative data were calculated with the ratio of p-AKT and t-AKT. *P < 0.05.
