Rhodopsin Protein Reduction Following siRNA or Control Injection

Vector Right eyes, Rhodopsin protein Left eyes, Rhodopsin protein P value
siRNA301 40.4 ± 10.6 * 100 ± 17.6 <0.0127
Irrelevant. siRNA 125.7 ± 31.8 100 ± 10.7 <0.445
*

Values (ratios of the intensity of the RHO band to the β-actin band in a Western blot) represent the content of rhodopsin protein in %. Experiment was done in triplicate. Right eyes were injected with either siRNA301 or irrelevant (phospholamban) siRNA. Left eyes were uninjected.
