The following figure is provided to replace Figure 6b. The corresponding author would like to highlight that that these results are confirmed by the experiment shown in Figure 7 of the published paper, showing that the 3′-UTR of HMGA2 is negatively regulated by miR-196a-2, and thus proving the regulation of HMGA2 by miR-196a-2.
(b) Western blot for the HMGA2 expression after treatment of the cells with the scrambled oligonucleotide, miR-196a-2 and antimiR-196a-2. The lanes have been loaded from left to right: NIH 3T3 cells transfected with antimiR-196a-2; NIH 3T3 cells transfected with miR-196a-2; NIH 3T3 cells transfected with the scrambled oligonucleotide, respectively. The same western blot was also stained with antibodies against gamma tubulin used as a loading control. Upper: low exposure; lower: high exposure.
The author would like to mention that the ability of miR-196a-2 to knock down HMGA2 has been subsequently confirmed in another paper published by his group: Palmieri D, D'Angelo D, Valentino T, De Martino I, Ferraro A, Wierinckx A et al. Downregulation of HMGA-targeting microRNAs has a critical role in human pituitary tumorigenesis. Oncogene 2012; 31: 3857–3865.
