MiR-21 reduces renal tubular cell apoptosis by targeting PDCD4 after ischemia-reperfusion injury. (A) qPCR showing pre-miR-21 treatment up-regulated miR-21 level, whereas antagomiR-21 down-regulated the expression of miR-21. (B) The expression of AR mRNA in the renal tissue by qPCR. (C) PDCD4 mRNA level was negatively correlated with the expression of miR-21 in mice with ischemia-reperfusion injury. (D) pre-miR-21 induced the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and PDCD4 protein after renal ischemia-reperfusion, yet antagomiR-21 reduced. (E) Quantitative evaluation of PDCD4 protein levels in renal tissue. (F) Quantitative evaluation of cleaved caspase-3 protein levels in renal tissue. Data displayed are mean ± SEM (n > 5). Compared with sham operation group, *p < 0.05. Compared with Control + IR group, #p < 0.05.
