Down-Regulation of MicroRNA-137 Improves High Glucose-Induced Oxidative Stress Injury in Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells by Up-Regulation of AMPKα1

Background/Aims: To investigate the effects of miR-137 on high glucose (HG)-induced vascular injury, and to establish the mechanism underlying these effects. Methods: Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were transfected with miR-137 inhibitor or mimic, and then treated with normal or hig...
