MicroRNA (miRNA) expression in response to Helicobacter pylori infection. miRNA expression was assayed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). (A) The increased miRNA expression observed with H. pylori 26695 was also apparent in the 43504, J99, and SS1 H. pylori strains; however, SS1 resulted in relatively lower expression levels. (B) The decreased miRNA expression observed with 26695 H. pylori was also observed with the other strains; however, the amplitude of the decrease induced by strain 43504 was low.

NC, negative control.
