RNA interference of FDPS and GGPS1. (A–F) Endometrial stromal cells were transfected with scramble siRNA or siRNA targeting FDPS or GGPS1 for 48 h. Cells were incubated for 24 h in serum-free medium and then challenged with control medium black bars (Inline graphic) or 100 HU/ml pyolysin red bars (Inline graphic) for 2 h. The mRNA expression of each cognate gene was measured by qPCR and normalized to two reference genes, ACTB and RPL19 (A, D). Data are presented as mean (SEM); n = 3 animals. Data were analyzed by Student t-test; values differ from scramble, * P < 0.05, *** P < 0.001. Cell viability was quantified by MTT assay and data expressed as percent of control (B, E), and supernatants were collected to measure the leakage of LDH from cells and data expressed as percent of control challenged with pyolysin (C, F). Data are presented as mean (SEM); n = 5 animals. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Dunnett multiple comparison post hoc test; values differ from scramble challenged with pyolysin, *** P < 0.001, NS = not significant.
