Expression of validated novel miRNAs in different cell types. No amplification was seen for candidate-1-3p in either primary HSG or primary fibroblast cells (denoted by ‘#’). Ct values of greater than 35 cycles (dotted line) are often considered to be undetected. Jurkat, immortalized T-cell line; HSG, immortalized human salivary gland cell line; pHSG, primary culture of minor salivary gland from SS patient; pFibroblast, primary culture of fibroblasts from oral cavity of SS patient
