The Notch pathway is activated in rMMP-9-induced EndoMT. a Respective Western blot analysis and quantitation of Notch-1 and NICD expression in rMMP-9-induced EndoMT in HKGECs six days after treatment. b Western blot analysis and quantitation showing NICD expression is regulated in an rMMP-9 dose-dependent manner. β-actin was used as a loading control. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM with n ≥ 3 for each experimental group, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
