Fig. 7From: Interferon regulatory factor 7 regulates airway epithelial cell responses to human rhinovirus infectionValidation of the microarray data at the protein level. HBE cells were transfected with the all-star control siRNA, or two independent siRNA reagents that target IRF7 (siRNA #1, siRNA #2). The cells were allowed to recover, and then exposed to HRV for 24 h. Protein levels for CCL5, CXCL5, CXCL10 were measured by ELISA and are shown as mean ± SEM from 4 experiments. Asterisks show significant differences compared to the all star control siRNA treatment. Expression of viperin protein was assessed by western blot. Data are representative of 4 such experimentsBack to article page
