miR-1929-3p overexpression decreased ET-1 and IL-1β activation in MCMV-infected mice. (a, c, e) ELISA detection of ET-1, IL-1β, and IL-18 concentration in plasma. (b, d, f) ELISA detection of ET-1, IL-1β, and IL-18 concentration in cardiac tissues. The data are expressed as the (), vs. the age-matched control groups. , the MCMV+miR-1929-3p groups vs. the age-matched MCMV groups.
