MiR-146a inhibition increases TRAF6 mRNA and protein levels in non-CF macrophages. (a) TRAF6 mRNA was evaluated using RT-qPCR in LPS-stimulated non-CF macrophages 8 h after transfection with the miR-146a inhibitor (α-miR-146a-5p) or the control inhibitor (Ctr) (n = 6). (b) TRAF6 protein expression 16 h after transfection. TRAF6 was assessed by Western blotting, with GAPDH as the endogenous control. Densitometric quantification and one representative out of three independently performed experiments (inset) are shown. Data are means ± SEM; *p < 0.05 (paired t-tests).
