FIGURE 3. miR-181c expression results in decreased myeloid cell leukemia (MCL)1 level and increased cell death.
GFP-tagged miR-181c expression plasmid was transfected into HL-60 cells. GFP-positive cells were sorted and collected by FACS sorter 48 h after transfection. Increased miR-181c level (A) and decreased MCL1 mRNA level (B) were observed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) in GFP-positive HL-60 cells 48 h after transfection. Aliquots of same volume of transfected cells were counted for live GFP-positive HL-60 cells (C). Mean and SD of triplicate experiments are shown. **, P < 0.01
