The total RNA was isolated from the cells using Trizol according to the manufacturer’s instructions. cDNAs were synthesized using the SuperScript III First-Strand synthesis system (Invitrogen). The resulting cDNAs were used as the templates for subsequent quantitative PCRs using gene-specific primers (IFN-β, ISG54, IFN-α, or β-actin).
