Fig. 1From: LncRNA HCP5 knockdown inhibits high glucose-induced excessive proliferation, fibrosis and inflammation of human glomerular mesangial cells by regulating the miR-93-5p/HMGA2 axisHCP5 was upregulated, while miR-93-5p was downregulated in DN serum samples and HG-treated HGMCs. A The expression of HCP5 in serum samples from DN patients and normal subjects was detected by QPCR. B The expression of HCP5 in HG- and NG-treated HGMCs was detected by QPCR. C The expression of miR-93-5p in serum samples from DN patients and normal subjects was measured by QPCR. D The expression of miR-93-5p in HG- and NG-treated HGMCs was measured by QPCR. E The correlation between miR-93-5p expression and HCP5 expression in DN serum samples was determined by Pearson correlation coefficient. ***P < 0.001Back to article page
