Effect of miRNA-146a and miRNA-146b inhibitors and mimics upon IFN-α release and cell viability. A549 cells exposed to control miRNA inhibitor/mimic, miR-146a inhibitor/mimic or miR-146b inhibitor/mimic for 4 h and then exposed to 1 ng/ml IL-1β for 24h. Supernatant samples were then removed for measurement of IFN-α (a) and the cell viability of the remaining cells was determined (b). The results are expressed as the mean ± SEM of 3 individual samples and the graphs are representative of 3 independent experiments.
