From: Characterization of microRNA expression profiles in normal and osteoarthritic human chondrocytes
BioAnalyser gel profiles of total RNA isolated from chondrocyte micropellets of healthy and OA donors were used to determine the RIN, RNA concentration and rRNA ratio [A]. Up-regulated microRNAs in OA and normal chondrocyte micropellets [B]. Relative expression levels of those microRNAs differentially expressed in normal and OA chondrocyte micropellets (p value < 0.1 and a fold-change cut-off >1.5) by Human miRNA microarray assay (mean ± S.E.) [C].
