American Ginseng Regulates Gene Expression to Protect against Premature Ovarian Failure in Rats

Figure 1

Validation of differential miR-29a, miR-144, PLA2G4A mRNA, and PLA2G4A protein expression in American ginseng-treated POF tissues. (a) miR-29a and miR-144 and PLA2G4A levels in ginseng-treated ovaries were determined by qRT-PCR. (b) Western blotting for PLA2G4A protein in the absence or presence of American ginseng. The expression level trended toward control levels. Data were expressed as mean ± SEM from five independent experiments performed in duplicate. versus VCD-treated groups and versus control.
