Effect of the deletion of the core ARE on the luciferase activity in C6 cells. Thirty-six hours after transfection with the indicated reporter constructs (A, B), the luciferase activity was measured as described in the Materials and Methods. Values represent the means ± SD from more than 3 independent cultures and are expressed relative to the luciferase activity of the pGL3-Promoter vector. *p < 0.01, compared to the luciferase activity in the Δ8 construct-transfected cells (Δ8).
