The effect of specific siRNAs on regulation of matrix-degrading enzyme gene transcription in SW1353 cells. SW1353 cells were treated with scrambled siRNA or specific siRNA targeting BRD2, BRD3, and BRD4 for 48 h and then treated with or without IL-1β (10 ng/ml) or TNF-α (10 ng/ml) for 6 h. ad The transcriptional expression of MMP1, MMP3, MMP13, and ADAMTS4 was evaluated by real time-PCR. Relative fold-change values were calculated in comparison with the vehicle control that was set to 1 (n = 3)
