Figure 3. Association of rs1059702 genotype with IRAK1 and MECP2 mRNA levels.

Figure 3

Expression levels of IRAK1 and MECP2 (total level of all isoforms) were measured in PBMCs of SLE patients and healthy controls with European ancestry using real-time quantitative PCR. The expression level of housekeeping gene RPLP0 was used as an endogenous control. Log10 value of relative mRNA levels of IRAK1 and MECP2 were compared between different genotypes of rs1059702 (G+GG vs. A+AA) in SLE and control groups, respectively, using t test. Females are highlighted as black.
