Upregulation of CUL3 expression combined with activation of SHH signaling alleviated vascular injury of hypertension mouse model induced by Ang II. A, B Measurement of Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) at D14 and D28 following insertion of Ang II osmotic pumps by using a tail-cuff blood pressure instrument. C The pathological changes of abdominal aortic tissues were evaluated with H&E staining. Magnification, × 200. The levels of D NO, E ROS and F SOD were examined with the corresponding commercial available kit. ***P < 0.001 vs. normal; ###P < 0.001 vs. model; △P < 0.05, △△△P < 0.001 vs. model + NC + SAG
