    Article Snippet: Dysregulation of cholesterol homeostasis is associated with several pathologies including cardiovascular diseases and neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD).. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as key posttranscriptional regulators of cholesterol metabolism.. We previously established the role of miR-7 in regulating insulin resistance and amyloidosis, which represents a common pathological feature between type 2 diabetes and AD.

( J ) Luciferase assays in HuSMCs transfected with DHS1-C construct and then treated with TGF-β (20 ng/ml). ( K ) qPCR for Jmjd3 after NTC versus Sp1 knockdown in mAoSMCs serum starved for 16 hours. Data are represented as mean ± SEM. Results are representative of data from SMCs from 4–6 mice per group. n = 3 independent experiments. Two-tailed Student’s t test, * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01.

    Article Snippet: DNA fragments were then cloned into pGL3 luciferase basic vector (Addgene), and the correct sequence was verified by Sanger sequencing.
