Fig. 2From: MicroRNA-138 promotes neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell apoptosis by directly targeting DEK in Alzheimer’s disease cell modelDEK was a direct target gene of miR-138. a qRT-PCR for miR-138 mRNA expression in SH-SY5Y cell model. b Bioinformatics analysis between DEK and miR-138. c Luciferase activity for cells transfected with miR-138 inhibitor or negative control and DEK 3′-UTR or DEK 3′-UTR MT. d Luciferase activity for cells transfected with miR-138 or negative control and DEK 3′-UTR or DEK 3′-UTR MT. e DEK mRNA expression after transfection with miR-138 or miR-138 inhibitor were detected by qRT-PCR. f, g DEK expression after transfection with miR-138 or miR-138 inhibitor were detected by Western blot (**P < 0.01)Back to article page
