Fig. 3From: MicroRNA-27a-3p enhances the inflammatory phenotype of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes Transfection with miR-27a-3p enhances FLS cytokine secretion. FLS were transfected with either miR-27a-3p mimic or miR-NC, then stimulated with pooled JIA synovial fluid (SF), or were left unstimulated. A Expression of the indicated cytokine genes was quantified using RT-qPCR, normalized to reference genes HPRT1 and GAPDH. Graphs show individual paired samples (n = 8). B Secretion of IL-6, CXCL8/IL-8, and CCL2 protein in culture supernatants was quantified by ELISA. Graphs show individual paired samples (n = 6–8). *p < 0.05Back to article page
