The role of SiNPs-triggered miR-451a on IL6R/STAT/TF signaling pathway in vivo. Decreased miR-451a and increased genes expression of Il6r, Jak1, Stat3, Tf and Fib were detected after SiNPs exposure (a-f). Protein levels of JAK1, STAT3, TF, IL6R, FIB and vWF were significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner induced by SiNPs (g). The protein levels of JAK1, STAT3, TF, IL6R, FIB and vWF were caculated by the relative densitometric analysis (h). Data are expressed as means ± S.D. from six independent experiments. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 compared with control without SiNPs and any mimics/inhibitor
