From: TRIM8 restores p53 tumour suppressor function by blunting N-MYC activity in chemo-resistant tumours
miR-17-5p and miR-106b-5p link p53 to the N-MYC pathway. a, d, e Expression levels of TRIM8, p21 and miR-34a were measured by RT-qPCR in HK-2, RCC-Shaw, UOK-257 and HCT116 transfected with Negative Control miRNA Mimic, anti-miR-17-5p or anti-miR-106b-5p. Relative expression ratios were measured respect to the sample transfected with the Negative Control miRNA Mimic and normalized by the expression levels of RPL13 for TRIM8 and p21, and by the expression level of U6 snRNA for miR-34a (** p-value < 0.005; *** p-value < 0.001). b, c Western blotting analysis of p53, TRIM8, N-MYC and p21 proteins were measured in the indicated cell lines transfected with Negative Control miRNA Mimic, anti-miR-17-5p or anti-miR-106b-5p. Western blot of Actin was conducted as control. Data are shown as the average with standard deviation of at least 3 independent experiments (** p-value < 0.005; *** p-value < 0.001)
