Fig. 7From: Tanshinone IIA changed the amniotic fluid volume and regulated expression of AQP1 and AQP3 in amniotic epithelium cells: a promising drug treating abnormal amniotic fluid volumeTanshinone IIA regulated the expression of AQP1 and AQP3 proteins in the fetal membranes of pregnancy mice at 13.5GD and 16.5GD. A Western blotting showed that expression of AQP1, AQP3 protein of mice fetal membranes in WT group, WT + Tanshinone IIA group, AQP1-KO group, and AQP1-KO + Tanshinone IIA group in 13.5GD. B Western blotting showed that expression of AQP1, AQP3 protein of mice fetal membranes in each group in 16.5GD. A’, B’ Quantification of the expressions of AQP1, AQP3 relative to Tubulin. * and △ represent significant difference compared with WT group and AQP1-KO group, respectively, P < 0.05Back to article page
