Validation of the microarray expression patterns of miR-181a-5p in DCs stimulated by HMGB1. Immature DCs were cultured with the indicated doses of HMGB1 (100 and 1000 ng/ml) or without HMGB1 (0 ng/ml, control). The up-regulation of miR-181a-5p in DCs stimulated by HMGB1 (100 and 1000 ng/ml) was significant compared with the DCs cultured without HMGB1 (0 ng/ml, as control). Results of 3 independent experiments were shown as the mean ± SEM. **P < 0.01 vs. 0 ng/ml group.
