Figure 5. Cedilanid inhibited the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF in retinal tissues from mice treated with normal air, mice treated with hyperoxia, and mice treated with cedilanid after hyperoxic exposure. A: Real time (RT)–PCR results show the relative mRNA expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). B: Representative western blot results show the protein expression of HIF-1α and VEGF. C: Quantification of the protein expression of HIF-1α and VEGF; n = 3. *p<0.05 versus mice with normal air, **p<0.05 versus mice treated with hyperoxia.
