Antifibrogenic effects of vitamin D derivatives on mouse pancreatic stellate cells

Figure 7 Effects of D-vitamins on ¹⁸F-proline incorporation. Pancreatic stellate cells were treated for 48 h with the indicated D-vitamins at 100 nmol/L each. Afterwards, incorporation of ¹⁸F-proline was determined as described in the materials and methods section. Raw data were normalized to the protein content of the samples. One hundred percent ¹⁸F-proline incorporation corresponds to untreated PSCs. Data are expressed as mean ± SE (n = 5 samples). P_{Friedman test} = 0.007, but no statistically significant differences between treated cells and the control group.
