doi: 10.3389/fped.2026.1731155

Figure Lengend Snippet: MRMP mediates upregulation of MPC1. (A) MPC1 mRNA expression in MRMP-infected HCAECs was determined using qRT-PCR ( n = 3). (B,C) MPC1 protein expression in MRMP-infected HCAECs was determined using Western blot ( n = 3). ** p < 0.01, one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post hoc test.
