Elevated retinol binding protein 4 levels are associated with atherosclerosis in diabetic rats via JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway

Figure 5 Comparisons of protein expression in each group. A: Janus kinase 2 and phosphorylated Janus kinase 2; B: Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 and phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3; C: Cylin D1 and B-cell lymphoma-2. ^aP < 0.05 vs control group, ^bP < 0.05 vs diabetic rat group. NC: Control group; DM: Diabetic rat group; DA: Diabetic atherosclerotic rat group; JAK2: Janus kinase 2; P-JAK2: Phosphorylated Janus kinase 2; STAT3: Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3; P-STAT3: Phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3; Bcl-2: B-cell lymphoma-2.
