From: CCL18 synergises with high concentrations of glucose in stimulating fibronectin production in human renal tubuloepithelial cells

Fig. 1

The production of fibronectin (Fn) by HK-2 cells stimulated with recombinant CCL18 for 48 h in a diabetic milieu. A significantly higher concentration of Fn was produced by HK-2 cells stimulated with recombinant CCL18 in high concentration of glucose in comparison to CCL18 only or high glucose concentration only. P < 0.001. Key: N0 = physiological glucose, A0 = glycated albumin, M0 = mannitol, H0 = high glucose, N20 = physiological glucose + 20 ng/ml CCL18, A20 = glycated albumin + 20 ng/ml CCL18, M20 = mannitol + 20 ng/ml CCL18, H20 = high glucose + 20 ng/ml CCL18
