Fig. 6From: X chromosome escapee genes are involved in ischemic sexual dimorphism through epigenetic modification of inflammatory signalsManipulation of KDM impacts IRF expression in neonatal microglia cultures. a–d ChIP analyses show the binding ratio of irf4 DNA with H3K4-me1 over H3K4-me3 after KDM5C siRNA or lenti-KDM5C treatment in both male and female microglia. e–h The binding ratio of irf5 DNA with H3K27-me1 over H3K27-me3 after KDM6A siRNA or lenti-KDM6A treatment by the ChIP assay. i–l irf4 mRNA levels were measured by RT-PCR after KDM5C siRNA or lenti-KDM5C treatment. m–p irf5 mRNA levels were measured by RT-PCR after KDM6A siRNA or lentivirus treatment. Data were averaged from 3 to 4 independent experiments with triplicate wells. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001 vs. control groupsBack to article page
