FOXA1 is a pioneer factor mediating ARPE-19-specific expression of ENACα (a) ARPE-19 cells were transfected with non-specific siRNA (siNS) or two siRNAs targeting different sites of the FOXA1 mRNA (siFOXA1(1) and siFOXA1(2)) to knock down FOXA1 (left panel). Cells were treated with Dex (100 nM) for 8 or 24 h before being harvested, and ENACα expression in ARPE-19 cells was assessed by RT-qPCR. Total RNA was analyzed by RT-qPCR. All mRNA levels were normalized to that of 18S rRNA (right panel). (b) The expression of ENACα in AP-1-depleted ARPE-19 cells (left panel) was assessed by RT-qPCR. Total RNA was analyzed by RT-qPCR. All mRNA levels were normalized to that of 18S rRNA (right panel).
