No vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGFA) increase post-shock wave (SW) administration. (A) Conditioned medium from control (CON CM) and SW-treated HUVECs (SW CM) applied to normal HUVECs for observation of tube formation (n = 3 in each group). (B) Parameters of tube formation assay, including tube length, branch point and loop number. (C) VEGFA in the conditioned medium from control and SW-treated HUVECs quantitated by ELISA (n = 4 in each group). Data shown as mean ± S.D. No significance (n.s.) determined by Student t test.
