Overexpression of MicroRNA-16 Alleviates Atherosclerosis by Inhibition of Inflammatory Pathways
Figure 4
Verification of potential target genes (PDCD4) of miR-16 from mRNA and protein expression levels. (a) The expressions of miR-16 were measured by real-time PCR in vessel tissues of ApoE-/- mice after treatment with agomir control and agomir-16. (b) The relative expressions of PDCD4 were measured by real-time PCR in vessel tissues of ApoE-/- mice after treatment with agomir control and agomir-16. (c) Immunohistochemical analyses of PDCD4 expression in aortic lesion of ApoE-/- mice after treatment with the agomiR control and agomiR-16. (d) Semiquantitative results for immunohistochemical results. (e) Western blot results of PDCD4 expression in two groups. Data are presented as the ; , compared with control.
