Knockdown of FOXM1 leads to pyroptosis of endothelial cells and inhibits angiogenesis. (A) WB detection of FOXM1, NLRP3, and N-GSDMD expression in HUVECs. (B) CCK-8 assay measuring proliferation activity of HUVECs. (C) Scratch wound healing assay detecting migration ability of HUVECs. (D) Tube formation assay evaluating angiogenesis capacity of HUVECs. n = 3. The magnification of images D and E is 100 times (scale = 400 μm). *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001. Three or more sets of data will be analyzed using one-way or two-way ANOVA, and Tukey’s will be used for post hoc testing
