Figure Lengend Snippet: GPER1 signaling restrains macrophage proliferation by inhibiting the MEK/ERK/cyclin pathway. (A–D) Human monocyte-derived macrophages were either untreated or treated with 20% Huh7-TSN for 48 hours, in the presence or absence of G-1(1 μM). The levels of p-ERK, ERK, p-Akt, Akt, cyclin D1, cyclin E1, CDK2 and CDK4 were determined using immunoblotting (A, C) . Quantitative analysis of protein expression levels, normalized to β-actin, was performed and plotted ( B, D , n = 4 or 6). The results shown in (B, D) are represented as mean ± SEM. P values were obtained using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01; ns, not significant.
