Several long noncoding RNAs and their nearest coding mRNAs are downregulated following injury. A: RNA was isolated at 3 days following carotid ligation. and analyzed by qRT-PCR as described in Fig. 1. NS, nonsurgical control; 3D control, contralateral control carotid; 3D injured, ligated carotid 3 days following ligation. B: RNA was isolated from mouse aortic smooth muscle cells following treatment with IL-1β or vehicle, and RNA expression was analyzed by qRT-PCR as described in Fig. 2. n = 3–5 *P < 0.05.
