Fig. 4. Conditioned media from lyso-Gb3 treated ARPE-19 cells increases endothelial senescence.
(A) Endothelial senescence was assessed by senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal) staining in HUVECs treated with conditioned medium (CM) from lyso-Gb3 treated ARPE-19 cells. (B) The effects of necrostatin, GSK’872, or 3-MA on lyso-Gb3 treated ARPE-19 CM-induced HUVEC senescence as determined by SA-β-Gal assays. Images are representative of three independent experiments (B). Scale bar, 50 μm. Bar graphs show expressions as mean percentages of SA-β-Gal positive cells. 3-MA, 3-methyladenine; HUVEC, human umbilical vein endothelial cell. **p < 0.01 vs. vehicle control, ##p < 0.01 vs. lyso-Gb3 treated cells, one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post-hoc test.
