MicroRNA-124 Controls Transforming Growth Factor β1-Induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in the Retinal Pigment Epithelium by Targeting RHOG.
1 Jan 2016
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: MicroRNA-124 (miR-124) is thought to be involved in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of RPE. We investigated the regulation of TGF-β1-induced EMT by miR-124 in human RPE cells (ARPE-19). METHODS: Expression of miR-124 was evaluated after TGF-β1 treatment by quantitative RT-PCR. Phenotypic alterations were analyzed by Western blot analysis and immunocytochemical staining. Target validation was...
