A and B Protein abundance of NOX2, NOX4, and Cleaved-caspase3 were detected by western blotting and corresponding semiquantitative densitometry analysis in cholesterol-treated mpkCCD cells with or without simvastatin treatment. C Immunofluorescence of NOX2 and NOX4 in cholesterol-treated mpkCCD cells with or without simvastatin treatment. D mRNA level of NOX2, NOX4, NOS2, and NOS3 in cholesterol-treated mpkCCD cells with or without simvastatin treatment. *P < 0.05 compared with CTL. #P < 0.05 compared with Cholesterol. Scale bars, 10 μm
