Quantitative real-time PCR analysis (in vitro) . Messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of NADPH oxidase (NOX1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the high-glucose without dehydroepiandrosterone (HG DHEA-) group were significantly higher than those in the low-glucose without DHEA (LG DHEA-) group at 48 h. (*p < 0.05). The expression of NOX1 and IL-6 in the high-glucose with DHEA group (HG DHEA+) were significantly lower than those in HG DHEA– group. (*p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in NOX4 expression between the groups
