(A) Levels of IGF-1R mRNA in each group were detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. IGF-1R expression was inhibited by transfection with siRNA-1, siRNA-2 and siRNA-3. Expression of IGF-1R mRNA in the three siRNA groups was significantly lower than that of the blank control group Data are expressed as the mean + standard deviation. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs. the blank control group. (B) The siRNA silencing efficiency. siRNA silencing efficiency=(1-IGF-1R expression in the siRNA group/IGF-1R expression in the blank group) ×100%. siRNA-2 exhibited the highest efficiency (72%) of silencing. **P<0.01 vs. the positive and negative groups. siRNA, small interfering RNA; IGF-1R, insulin-like growth factor receptor 1.
