Impact of treatment with glucose and insulin on DPP-4 expression. Cells were treated with glucose (10 mM) and insulin (0.5 nM) for 24 h. A The mRNA expression of DPP-4 was significantly increased in the treated control cell as compared with the untreated control cells (n = 3/group). B The DPP-4 protein level was significantly increased in the treated control cells as compared with the untreated control cells (n = 3/group). No significant difference of DPP4 mRNA or protein expression level was observed between the treated and untreated cells in AIS. *p < 0.05, two-tailed Student’s t test, two-tailed Student’s t test. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation
