<p>(<i>A</i>) Human Huh7 hepatocytes were infected with or without HCV (MOI = 1) for different times as indicated. The expression of miR-21 was measured by qPCR and normalized to the expression of U6 in each sample. Results are standardized to 1 in uninfected cells. (<i>B</i>) Human Huh7 hepatocytes were infected with or without HCV at different MOIs, as indicated, for 12 h, and expression miR-21 was determined by qPCR. Data are presented as the meansSD (n = 3) from one representative experiment. Similar results were obtained in three independent experiments.</p
