Analysis of the effect of glucose and fluvastatin on the kinetics of mRNA expression of VEGF (–▪–) and bFGF (–•–) in normal monocytes/macrophages during a 48 hour in vitro treatment period. A, no treatment. B, treatment with glucose (6 mg/ml). C, treatment with fluvastatin (1 μM). D, treatment with glucose and Fluvastatin. The y-axis represents the VEGF/β2-microglobulin and bFGF/β2-microglobulin ratio of the integrated density respectively.
