Figure 1From: miR-21: an oncomir on strike in prostate cancerCharacterization of PCa cells for miR-21 and PTEN expression. (A) RT-PCR and western immunoblotting, and (B) RNase protection assay showing the basal expression levels of PTEN and miR-21 in DU145 and PC-3 cell lines. (C) qRT-PCR showing the down-modulation of free miR-21 in DU145 (grey bars) and PC-3 cells (white bars) exposed to LNA21. Data are reported as relative quantity (RQ) of LNA21- over LNAScr-treated cells and represent mean values ± SD of at least three independent determinations.Back to article page
