Galectin-3 antagonized high glucose (25 mM) − induced trophoblast cells apoptosis. (A) Western blotting analysis showing expression of pro-apoptosis markers (active caspase-3 and total caspase-3) with galectin-3 siRNA. (B) The percentages of apoptosis (early apoptosis, late apoptosis, and early apoptosis plus late apoptosis) of HTR-8/SVneo cells were measured by flow cytometry after treatment with galectin-3 siRNA. Q1, necrotic cells; Q2, late apoptosis cells; Q3, living cells; Q4, early apoptosis cells. *: P < 0.05, **: P < 0.01, and ***: P < 0.001
