MicroRNA-1290 promotes esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cell proliferation and metastasis

Figure 3 MiR-1290 overexpression promotes the growth of Eca109 and TE13 cells. A: miR-1290 expression was significantly higher in cells transfected with miR-1290 mimic than in negative control cells; B: CCK8 assay showed that miR-1290 promoted Eca109 and TE13 cell proliferation; C: Colony formation assay showed that miR-1290 enriched the colony formation of Eca109 and TE13 cells; D: miR-1290 overexpression in Eca109 cells and miR-1290 under-expression in TE13 cells did not significantly alter cell apoptosis ability. ^bP < 0.01 vs control; ^aP < 0.05 vs control. nc: Negative control; inhi: Inhibitor; inc: Inhibitor negative control.
