Gene and protein expression of Matrix Metalloproteinase (MMP) and Extracellular Matrix (ECM) family. Results are presented as fold change with NTC as the reference, mean ± SEM of three independent experiments from each of three independent infections. P-value < 0.05 is indicated by an asterisk. a MMP family. Gene target RT-PCR relative expression of MMP family genes in fibroid and myometrial cells upregulated with miR-21. b ECM Family. Gene target RT-PCR relative expression of ECM family genes in fibroid and myometrial cells upregulated with miR-21. c Collagen Assay. ELISA results of Collagen 1A1 protein expression in fibroid and myometrial cells upregulated with miR-21
