Effect of down-regulation of IL-13Rα1 via siRNA transfection. The expression of IL-13Rα1 was decreased significantly with siRNA transfection. Ana-1 cells were infected with IL-13Rα1 siRNA or empty vector for 48 h except control group. (A) Effect of siRNA transfection: 48 h after the ana-1 cells were infected, the cells were observed in the fluorescence, in control light and in both the fluorescence and control light respectively. (B) Effect of siRNA transfection on IL-13Rα1 mRNA levels detected by real-time qPCR. *p < 0.01 compared with the empty and control group (n = 3, student's t-test). (C) Effect of siRNA transfection on IL-13Rα1 protein abundance detected by western blot assay. *p < 0.01 compared with the empty and control group (n = 3, student's t-test). Data are shown with mean with SD.
