MiR-26a and miR-26b are downregulated in TGFβ2-induced EMT in LECs and injury-induced ASC model in mice. (a) MiRNA array analysis shows the representative downregulated miRNAs in TGFβ2-stimulated LECs for 48 h. The pseudocolor represents the intensity scale of the TGFβ2 (5 ng/ml) treatment group versus the control group (n=3 per group). (b) MiRNA array analysis shows the representative upregulated miRNAs in TGFβ2-stimulated LECs for 48 h. (c) Real-time PCR analysis of the expression of miR-26a and -26b in response to TGFβ2 (5 ng/ml) in LECs at different time points. (d) Real-time PCR analysis of miR-26a and -26b in injury-induced ASC in mice at day 1, day 3 and day 7 after injury. *P<0.05
