[Retracted] Inhibition of miR-15a-5p Promotes the Chemoresistance to Pirarubicin in Hepatocellular Carcinoma via Targeting eIF4E

Figure 3

eIF4E is a target gene of miR-15a-5p and negatively associated with miR-15a-5p expression. (a) The target gene of miR-15a-5p was predicted with ENCORI and miRwalk. vs. the NC inhibitor group. (b) Binding sites between miR-15a-5p and eIF4E. (c) Luciferase reporter analysis was employed to validate the interactions between miR-15a-5p and eIF4E. vs. the NC mimic group. (d) qRT-PCR and (e) western blot assays were performed to evaluate the eIF4E expression in HepG2 cells after transfection with miR-15a-5p inhibitor. vs. the NC inhibitor group. All data were presented as . .
