Figure 2. Relative mRNA abundance in fibroblasts infected with control pLK viruses or fibulin-4 shRNA viruses pL335 and pL337.
Infecting HFFs with pL335 or pL337 viruses leads to a significant decrease in fibulin-4 mRNA (A), with no statistically significant change in the mRNA level (B) of fibrillin-1 (hFBN1), lysyl oxidase (hLOX), and lysyl oxidase-like-1 (hLOXL1). Results are means ± S.D. for six to eight samples. **P < 0.05 compared with the control pLK.
