The expression levels of miR-1207-5p and miR-1266 are clinically relevant. Fifty-eight pairs of gastric cancer tissues and matched corresponding adjacent tissues were collected for miRNA expression analysis. Real-time RT-PCR was performed to analyze the expression levels of miR-1207-5p and miR-1266. The housekeeping gene U6 was amplified as an internal reference to adjust for well-to-well variations in RNA input. (a) The miRNA expression levels in cancer tissues and corresponding adjacent tissues of 58 gastric cancer patients. Both miR-1207-5p and miR-1266 were significantly downregulated in gastric cancer tissues.
