Ethnic Differences in MicroRNA-375 Expression Level and DNA Methylation Status in Type 2 Diabetes of Han and Kazak Populations

Figure 1

The levels of miR-375 expression in Kazak and Han T2DM samples. The plasma mRNA levels of miR-375 in 100 Kazak and 100 Han T2DM samples were determined by quantitative real-time PCR as described in Materials and Methods. The relative expression values were defined as the expression ratio of miR-375 to miR-16. The values represented average expression levels with standard deviation (SD) of three independent experiments and the significant level was determined by Student’s t-tests between the indicated groups ( ).
