From: MicroRNA-29c functions as a tumor suppressor by targeting VEGFA in lung adenocarcinoma
Forced expression of VEGFA abolishes the phenotype created by mimic transfection in A549 cells. a and b Cell migration and invasion abilities were determined in A549 cells transfected with miR-29c mimic, mimic-NC and miR-29c mimic plus VEGFA expression plasmid. ***p < 0.001. c Cell proliferation abilities were determined in A549 cells transfected with miR-29c mimic, mimic-NC and miR-29c mimic plus VEGFA expression plasmid. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01. d and e HUVECs were cultured in TCM derived from A549 cells transfected with miR-29c mimic, mimic-NC and miR-29c mimic plus VEGFA expression plasmid. Representative images of tube formation and the relative number of tube branches measured in random 10 photographic fields are presented. **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
