 MAT2A-knockdown reduced inflammation in P. gingivalis-infected hGFs.

HGFs were transfected with siRNA for 72 h. (a&b) The efficiency of three siRNA plasmids to knock down MAT2A was detected by Western blot and qPCR, respectively. HGFs with MAT2A or scrambled siRNA were infected with P. gingivalis (MOI = 100). (c) Gene transcription of inflammatory cytokines was assessed by qPCR at 3 h and (d)protein levels were detected by Western blot at 24 h. (e) IL-6, MCP-1, and (f) SAM in the culture supernatants of 24 h were detected by ELISA. Data are presented as the mean ± SD (n = 3). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.
