Figure 2. MicroRNA 21 detection in the mammary gland.

Figure 2

(a) Expression of miR-21 in mammary glands from virgin and 6 day pregnant Stat5fl/fl and Stat5fl/fl;MMTV-Cre mice. (b) Expression of miR-21 in Stat5fl/fl mice in mammary glands from virgin and 6 day pregnant mice. (c) Expression of beta-casein in Stat5fl/fl;MMTV-Cre mice in mammary glands from virgin and 6 day pregnant mice. (d) Expression of beta-casein in Stat5fl/fl mice in mammary glands from virgin and 6 day pregnant mice. The miRNA levels were normalized to U6 levels, mRNA levels were normalized to beta-actin mRNA levels. In each analysis the virgin mammary gland was used as the control sample (fold change = 1). Values are means ± S.D. for three independent experiments. (e) Detection of mir-21 expression in the mammary gland of 6 day pregnant mice. In situ hybridization analysis using DIG-conjugated, LNA-modified DNA probes complementary to U6 (right), miR-21 (middle) and scrambled (left). Detection was performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded section from 6 day pregnant mammary glands.
