Comparison of the mRNA levels of Smad7 (a) and protein levels of Smad3 (b) expressions in the liver of WT and miR-29Tg mice following bile duct ligation (BDL). Western blot was adopted to study Smad3 activity; (c) We used a scatter plot to demonstrate that Smad7 and Smad3 negatively correlated with Pearson’s correlation coefficient (R = −0.46, p = 0.02). Data from the six samples per group are expressed as the mean ± SE. * indicates a p < 0.05 between the groups.
