versus the negative transfection group; aPC12 cells transfected with NR2B-siRNA; bPC12 cells transfected with WSLP/scRNA; cPC12 cells transfected with WSLP/NR2B-siRNA; dthe mRNA level was calculated by the ratio of NR2B mRNA to β-actin mRNA; ethe protein level was calculated as the product of the absorbance and area (OD × mm2). All values represent the mean ± standard deviation.
