Figure 1. Rab7 expression was upregulated in HK-2 cells under hypoxia condition. HK-2 cells were maintained in normoxia or hypoxia condition. Then, (A, B) the protein expression of Rab7 in HK-2 cells was detected by western blot. β-actin was used for quantification. (C, D) HK-2 cells were transfected with Rab7 shRNA1, Rab7 shRNA2 or Rab7 shRNA3. The protein level of Rab7 in HK-2 cells was investigated by western blot. β-actin was used for quantification. (E) HK-2 cells in hypoxia condition were treated with Rab7 shRNA1. The level of Rab7 in HK-2 cells was tested by RT-qPCR. ^**P<0.01 compared to normoxia or control. ^##P<0.01 compared to Hypoxia.
