Values are means ± standard deviations. Data represent arbitrary units obtained with the RT-qPCR normalized to Rn18s. Statistical analysis was done using non-parametric one-way ANOVA according to Kruskal-Wallis test and unpaired Mann-Whitney U-test as post-hoc test. Superscripts (a vs Control) indicate statistically significant differences (P<0.05).
