Correction to “Functional role of long non-coding RNA CASC19/miR-140-5p/CEMIP axis in colorectal cancer progression in vitro”

Figure 1 MiR-140-5p suppresses CASC19-induced enhancement of colorectal cancer cells proliferation and metastasis. A and B: Growth curves of SW480 and HCT-116 cells transfected with either miR-140-5p inhibitor or si cancer susceptibility 19 (CASC19) (A), and miR-140-5p mimic or CASC19-overexpressing plasmid (CASC19-p) (B), as determined by CCK-8 assay; C and D: Transwell invasion assays of HCT-116 and SW480 cells transfected with either miR-140-5p inhibitor or siCASC19 (C) and miR-140-5p mimic or CASC19-p (D). Scale bars = 20 μm; E and F: Western blot analysis of E-cadherin and vimentin expression in CRC cells following transfection with miR-140-5p inhibitor or siCASC19 (E) and miR-140-5p mimic or CASC19-p (F). Data are presented as mean ± SD. ^aP < 0.05.
