Transfecting cells with miR-36 mimic specifically lowered IFITM1 expression and thereby significantly dampening KSHV infection. The doses of the mimic In panels 'C and D' , Student t test was performed to study the effect of HS and compare infection of cells with KSHV versus UV.KSHV on miR-36 expression at 5, 10, 15, and 30 min PI. Transfection of BJAB (Fig. 2C ) and HMVEC-d (Fig. 2D ) cells with miR-36 mimic significantly reduced KSHV infection of cells as monitored by the expression of ORF50 gene as early as 30 min PI. Interestingly, the effect of miR-36 mimic on KSHV infection of BJAB and HMVEC-d cells could be significantly reversed by co-transfecting cells with 10 nM of miR-36 inhibitor (Fig. 2E ). ./cache/cord-265211-a7whyds8.txt ./txt/cord-265211-a7whyds8.txt
