Hypoxia induces dynamic changes in expression profiles of DDIT4 (A) in HUVECs. The results from 3 independent experiments (n = 18) are plotted normalized to TBP mRNA levels and expressed as a fold-change over the normoxic control. Error bars represent standard deviations. miR-429 mimic and antagomir modulate DDIT4 expression. (B) HUVECs were transfected with miR-429 mimic or antagomir and the mRNA levels were monitored in qRT-PCR experiments in normoxic conditions and after 4 and 8 hours of hypoxia. The mRNA levels from 3 independent experiments (n = 12) were normalized TBP mRNA levels and expressed as a fold change over the transfection control. miR-429 indirectly modulates the expression of DDIT4 mRNA levels during hypoxia through its actions on HIF3A mRNA. (C) mRNA levels were monitored in qRT-PCR experiments following transfection of HUVECs with HIF3A TP and HIF1A TP together with miR-429 analog (Mimic 429). The mRNA levels results from 3 independent experiments (n = 12) are normalized to TBP mRNA levels and expressed as a fold-change over the transfection control. Significant changes (p < 0.05) are marked with an “*”.
