Figure 3From: DREAM is reduced in synovial fibroblasts of patients with chronic arthritic pain: is it a suitable target for peripheral pain management?Specific downregulation of DREAM mRNA expression. (a) The effect of five different small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) tested. All show an overall reduction in DREAM expression of 70% to 90% compared with the expression in mock-transfected cells and cells transfected with siRNA-green fluorescence protein (100%). (b) Time course of reduced levels of DREAM expression in synovial fibroblast-like cells transfected with siRNA3 and siRNA4 and incubated 24, 48, and 72 hours. DREAM, downstream regulatory element antagonist modulator.Back to article page
