(C) RT-qPCR quantification of relative pri-miR-21 and miR-21-3p levels in the epidermis (left and middle), and of relative miR-21-3p in the dermis (right) of acutely irradiated (Ac-UV; +) and non-irradiated (-) Ppard +/+ and -/- mice. Pri-miR-21: Ppard +/+ Ac-UV vs Ppard -/- Ac-UV P = 0.022; miR-21-3p: Ppard +/+ no UV vs Ppard +/+ Ac-UV P = 0.017, Ppard +/+ Ac-UV vs Ppard -/- Ac-UV P = 0.008. N=3-4 animals per group, one representative experiment is shown out of three independent replicates.
