?Overexpression of TIPE1 reverses the effects of Vitamin D in ROS and autophagy in human umbilical vein endothelial cells treated by high glucose. (A) ROS level was detected by DCFH-DA. (B) Autophagy flux was tested by mCherry-GFP-LC3B assay. (C) Transmission microscope was performed to check the autophagosome. Ctrl, a normal concentration of glucose (5.6 mM); G, high glucose treatment; G+VD, high glucose plus vitamin D treatment; G+VD+pc-NC, high glucose plus vitamin D treatment as well as pc-NC transfection; G+VD+pc-TIPE1, high glucose plus vitamin D treatment as well as pc-TIPE1 transfection. *P<0.05, **P<0.01
