Fig. 1From: MicroRNA-223-3p downregulates the inflammatory response in preeclampsia placenta via targeting NLRP3Expression patterns of NLRP3 in placenta tissues of patients with PE. (A) The expression of NLRP3 mRNA in PE and normal placenta tissues was detected by RT-qPCR; (B) The expression of NLRP3 protein in PE and normal placenta tissues was measured by western blot; (C) The positive protein expression level and location of NLRP3 in PE and normal placenta were determined by immunohistochemical staining (Bar = 20 μm). All data were displayed as mean ± SD; The data were analyzed by independent sample t test; *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 vs. the normal group; N = 30.
