Table 1 List of miRNAs that were differentially expressed between EBOV- and mock-infected human RPE cells at 24 h post-infection.Putative target genes in EBOV-infected human RPE cells were predicted from the 15 highly differentially expressed miRNAs using algorithms: 2629 targets by Diana microT; 1799 targets by miRDB; and 14315 targets by TargetScan (Additional file 5).
