Fig. 4From: MiR-128-3p inhibits vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration by repressing FOXO4/MMP9 signaling pathwayEffect of miR-128-3p on FOXO4 and MMP9. a Predicted binding site between miR-128-3p and the 3′UTR of FOXO4. b The binding relationship between miR-128-3p and FOXO4 3′UTR was verified by dual luciferase reporter gene assay. c Western blot was used to detect FOXO4 and MMP9 expressions after transfection. d–g The quantification of FOXO4 and MMP9 at the mRNA and protein levels in VSMCs after miR-128-3p was overexpressed or inhibited. *, **, *** represent p < 0.05, p < 0.01, p < 0.001, respectivelyBack to article page
