miR-142-3p/5p upregulates in activated microglia and targets CAMK2A. (A) Histogram depicts a significant upregulation of miR-142-3p and miR-142-5p in activated microglia upon LPS treatment for 6 h. Data represented as mean ± SD, (n = 5), Students t-test, *p < 0.05. (B) Bioinformatics analysis predicted that miR-142-3p and miR-142-5p putatively target 3′UTR of Camk2a. The seed region and the target site type have been highlighted (TargetScan and Miranda software was used to predict miRNA targets. Image acquired from http://www.microrna.org/). (C) Histogram depicting a significant decrease in mRNA expression levels of Camk2a in activated microglia upon LPS treatment for 6 h, suggesting an inverse relationship between miR-142-3p/5p and its target gene, Camk2a. Data represented as mean ± SD, (n = 4), Students t-test, ***p < 0.001.
