(b) Luciferase assay of WT and mutant STX6 3′UTR reporters in HEK293A cells transfected with miR‐375‐3p mimic or scramble. (c) qRT‐PCR analysis of STX6 mRNA in HUVECs transfected with miR‐375‐3p mimic or scramble, normalized to GAPDH. (d, e) Western blot analysis of STX6 protein expression in HUVECs transfected with miR‐375‐3p mimic (d) or STX6 siRNAs (e), normalized to GAPDH. (f) Representative SA‐β‐gal staining and quantification in HUVECs transfected with STX6 siRNAs or scramble. Scale bar = 200 μm. (g) Representative colony formation images showing cell proliferation in HUVECs transfected with STX6 siRNAs or scramble. Scale bar = 5 mm. (h) qRT‐PCR analysis of p15, IL6, and IL8 mRNA in HUVECs transfected with STX6 siRNAs or scramble, normalized to GAPDH. Data are presented as mean ± SD; statistical significance determined by unpaired two‐tailed Student's t ‐test. ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001.
