Fig. 3

The effect of FGF21 on apoptosis is dependent on the Fas signaling pathway in HUVECs. After pretreatment with 500 ng/ml FGF21 for 6 h, HUVECs were incubated with 25 μg/ml ox-LDL for 36 h. a Fas protein levels in HUVECs incubated with ox-LDL with or without FGF21 were measured by western blotting. b FADD protein levels in HUVECs incubated with ox-LDL with or without FGF21 were measured by western blotting. **p < 0.01 vs. Con, #p < 0.05 vs. ox-LDL
