Electroacupuncture protects gastric Cajal cells by reducing macrophage pyroptosis in diabetic gastroparesis

Figure 8 Effects of electroacupuncture on the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon genes signaling pathway. A: Representative western blot images; B-F: Quantitative analysis of cyclic GMP-AMP synthase, stimulator of interferon genes, p- stimulator of interferon genes, interferon regulatory factor 3, and p-interferon regulatory factor 3 protein expression across groups. Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 6). ^aP < 0.05 vs control group, and ^bP < 0.05 vs diabetic gastroparesis group. DGP: Diabetic gastroparesis; SEA: Sham-electroacupuncture; LEA: Low-frequency electroacupuncture; HEA: High-frequency electroacupuncture; cGAS: Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase; STING: Stimulator of interferon genes; IRF3: Interferon regulatory factor 3; GAPDH: Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase; DM: Diabetes mellitus.
