The influence of MafB inhibition to CD14+ monocytes from chronic hepatitis C patients (n = 10) on HCVcc infected Huh7.5 cells. CD14+ monocytes were transfected with control siRNA or MafB siRNA and were co-cultured with HCVcc infected Huh7.5 cells in direct and indirect contact manners for 48 h. Supernatants were harvested for further analysis. (A) HCV RNA was quantified by real-time PCR and was compared among groups. Significances were determined using SNK-q test. (B) Percentage of target cell death was determined by measuring LDH expression and was compared among groups. Significances were determined using one-way ANOVA. (C) IFN-α1 and (D) IFN-β were measured by ELISA and were compared among groups. Significances were determined using SNK-q test and Dunn’s multiple comparison test, respectively. Individual level for each enrolled subject was shown.
