LINC01614 Promotes Colorectal Cancer Cell Growth and Migration by Regulating miR-217-5p/HMGA1 Axis

Figure 4

miR-217-5p directly binds to HMGA1. (a) A putative binding site of HMGA1 within miR-217-5p predicted by starBase. (b) Luciferase activity of HMGA1 wt/mut in HT29 and SW620 cells transfected with miR-NC or miR-217-5p mimics. (c) RIP assays detecting the interaction between HMGA1 and miR-217-5p in HT29 and SW620 cells. (d) qRT-PCR measurements to check HMGA1 levels in HT29 and SW620 cells transfected with miR-NC or miR-217-5p mimics. (e) Relative HMGA1 mRNA levels in 36 pairs of CRC tissues and matched normal tissues. (f) Pearson’s correlation coefficients detecting the correlation among LINC01614, miR-217-5p, and HMGA1 in CRC tissues. Data are presented as the mean ± SD. **.
