Effects of aal-miR-4728-5p on the replication of DENV-2 in C6/36 cells. a Cytopathic effect (CPE) of DENV-2 in C6/36 cells that had been transfected with an aal-miR-4728-5p inhibitor. b CPE in C6/36 cells that had been transfected with an aal-miR-4728-5p mimic. c Relative expression of aal-miR-4728-5p in C6/36 cells 24 h and 72 h post-transfection with the mimic, inhibitor and negative controls. d Relative DENV-2 expression levels in C6/36 cells after transfection with an aal-miR-4728-5p mimic or inhibitor. Relative expression levels of aal-miR-4728-5p and DENV-2 were determined via qRT-PCR and calculated using the 2-⊿⊿CT method. Abbreviations: NCm, negative control for the aal-miR-4728-5p mimic; NCi, negative control for the aal-miR-4728-5p inhibitor
