hsa_circ_0129047 Upregulates LYVE1 to Inhibit Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression by Sponging miR-492

Figure 4

miR-492 downregulation is critical for the inhibitory effect of circ_0129047 on HCC cell survival. Hep 3B and Huh7 cells were transfected with OE-NC, OE-circ (OE-circ_0129047), miR-492 mimic, NC mimic, or OE-circ+mimic. (a) CCK8 assays were conducted to determine HCC cell proliferation. (b) Scratch migration assays were conducted to evaluate the migration rate of HCC cells after 24 hr of transfection. (c) Transwell migration assays were conducted to examine HCC cell invasion after 48 hr of transfection. ; , vs. mimic; ##, vs.mimic-NC; &; &&, vs.OE + mimic.
