Fig. 3: HOTAIR and SCEL was down-regulated after thermal injury.

mRNA levels of HOTAIR and SCEL in clinical samples (a) and HUVECs (b) were determined by qRT-PCR. GAPDH served as an internal control. Each bar is a mean ± SD of n = 3 experiments. *P < 0.05. c Protein levels of SCEL, Col1a2, MMP9, and VEGFA in five pairs of samples with mostly increased miR-126 levels were determined by western blotting. GAPDH served as loading control. Data were representative images of n = 3 experiments.
