Figure 5From: MiR-29c is downregulated in gastric carcinomas and regulates cell proliferation by targeting RCC2RCC2 and PPIC, but not CDK6, are upregulated in gastric carcinoma. To validate the expression levels of possible miR-29c target genes in cancer tissues, quantitative RT-PCR was performed with non-cancerous epithelial tissues (n = 5) and gastric carcinoma tissues (n = 23) that had been previously subjected to microarray [6, 21]. The graphs show the normalized expression levels of individual miRNAs relative to the median of non-cancerous epithelial tissues. Each dot indicates the expression level in an individual case. The y axis represents the fold change. *P <0.05. NS, not significant. Mann–Whitney U test.Back to article page
