Figure 5

miR-181b directly interacted with Notch1 in VSMCs. (a) TargetScan database predicts the binding sequence between Notch1 and miR-181b. (b) Pearson’s correlation coefficient determined the correlations between Notch1 and circ_TNPO1 or miR-181b in AS patients’ serum. (c) Dual-luciferase reporter assay determined the direct interaction of Notch1 with miR-181b in VSMCs.. (d) Effects of miR-181b mimic and miR-181b inhibitor on Notch1 protein expression levels in VSMCs.
