MALAT1 interference decreases TET1 expression. (a) Evaluation of the changes in TET1 mRNA and protein expressions by RT-qPCR and Western blotting in HLECs treated with TNF-α and MALAT1 siRNAs. GAPDH served as the endogenous control. (b) Diagram summarising the MALAT1/miR-26a-5p/TET1 signalling pathway in HLECs, which promotes the inflammatory response and EMT of HLECs.
