Fig. 7From: Association of CASC18/miR-20a-3p/TGFB2 ceRNA axis with occult lymph node metastasis in tongue squamous cell carcinomaInhibitor against miR-20a-3p attenuates the repression effects of CASC18 knockdown on cell migration and invasionThe effect of miR-20a-3p inhibitor on A cell migration and B invasion of CASC18-silencing CAL27 was evaluated by wound healing and transwell assays, respectively. The right histograms denote the percentage of wound closure and the relative number of invaded cells, respectively. The impact of miR-20a-3p inhibitor on C the expression of TGFB2 and EMT-related biomarkers and D secretion of TGFB2 in CASC18-silencing CAL27 by wester blot and ELISA, respectively. miR-20a-3p inh meant miR-20a-3p inhibitor. Data are presented as the mean ± SD. *p < 0.05Back to article page
