Has1 (A), Has2 expression (B), and HA content (C) in the cervix of pregnant Rln−/− mice treated with placebo (white bars) or rhRLX (hatched bars) for 4 and 6 d. QPCR data are normalized to the reference gene Rn18s and presented as mean ± sem as calculated using the 2−ΔCT method (n = 5/group). *, P < 0.05 higher and #, P < 0.05 lower vs. Rln−/− placebo (P < 0.05); §, P < 0.05 higher vs. 4-d Rln−/− rhRLX.
