PEDF-sEVs suppress the expression of inflammatory cytokines in HRECs. A Starved HRECs were pre-treated with PEDF, sEVs, or PEDF-sEVs under stimulation with 10 ng/mL VEGF for 24 h. Representative western blot images showing the expression of ICAM-1 in HRECs. B Relative expression of ICAM-1 compared with that of GAPDH (n = 3). C, D, E. PCR analysis of the expression of TNF-α, VCAM-1, and IL-1β in HRECs (n = 5). The data are represented as mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001
