Correlation of IκBα expression and miR-126 expression in human colon tissues.

<p>(A) The expression of miR-126 and IKBA mRNA were detected by qRT-PCR in individual biopsy samples from normal healthy individuals (open circles, <i>n</i> = 15) and active UC (solid squares, <i>n</i> = 12), Pearson correlation analysis <i>r</i> = −0.466, <i>P</i><0.01. (B) The expression patterns of miR-126 and IκBα protein (detected by immunofluorescence analysis as shown in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0052782#pone-0052782-g004" target="_blank">Figure 4E</a>) in samples from normal healthy individuals (open circles, <i>n</i> = 15) and active UC patients (solid squares, <i>n</i> = 12).
