Downregulation of CtsE correlates with TTR V30M deposition. a Histogram represents CtsE mRNA levels in Hsf/V30M DRGs after mice treatment with either a TTR siRNA or vehicle (*p < 0.05). b CtsE immunohistochemical staining in human sural nerve biopsies, showing decreased expression of this molecule with FAP progression (scale bar 50 μm; *p < 0.05). c Real-time PCR analysis for CtsE in buffy coats from human FAP patients comparatively with healthy subjects. Patients had similar ages in both groups, and there were no gender differences. Gapdh was the housekeeping gene for normalization
