PON3 mRNA is not actively degraded in response to 3OC12 treatment. (a) A549 cells were treated with 3OC12 (100 μM) for the indicated durations and analyzed for PON3 mRNA levels by qRT-PCR. (b) A549 cells were treated with 3OC12 (100 μM, 24 h) or with DRB (100 μM, 24 h) or combinations thereof. There was no statistically significant difference in PON3 mRNA levels after DRB or DRB/3OC12 treatment. Symbols represent ± S.E.M. 𝑛 = 3 ; 𝑃 < 0 . 0 0 1 versus control.
