Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 3. Positive regulation of miR-17-92 by E2F1. (A) The expression of miR-17-92 members in control and E2F1 overexpressing cells was analyzed by RT-qPCR. Values represent means ± SD. Error bars, SD. *P < 0.05. (B) To detect the direct regulation of E2F1 on miR-17-92, a ChIP assay was performed with 3 putative binding sites of E2F1 on the miR-17-92 promoter. Input DNA that was not enriched by immunoprecipitation was amplified as a positive control. The miR-106a ORF region was used as negative control. The gels were cropped for figure construction.
Article Snippet: Vectors of shE2F1 (Origene TG509487), shSCR (vectors against a scrambled sequence, negative control (Origene TR30013), and E2F1 expression vectors (Addgene plasmid 10736) were transfected into PMCs with TurboFectin 8.0 (Origene, Rockville, MD, USA) following the manufacturer’s protocol.
