Downregulation of COX-2 expression in 293T cells by shRNA transfection. (A) GFP expressed 48 h after the transfection of the control, shRNA1, shRNA2 and shRNA3 plasmid in 293T cells, under a fluorescent microscope, respectively. (magnification 200 ×). (B) COX-2 mRNA levels were detected by RT-PCR. (C) COX-2 protein levels were detected by western blotting. Data are presented as mean ± s.e.m. * P < 0.01, # P < 0.001, compared with untransfected 293T cells group or control plasmid transfected cells group.
