Exogenous MtDNA aggravates uremic serum-induced microvascular inflammation in HCMECs. PCR analysis was performed on ICAM-1, MCP-1 and TNF-α, in which GAPDH was taken as internal reference. Each experiment was performed in triplicate and repeated for three times. *p < 0.05 compared to normal serum group; # p < 0.05 compared to uremic serum group. Data are mean ± SD. NS, normal serum; US, uremic serum
