Fig. 4: Regulation of Twist1 mediated by lncATB via binding to miR-200c.

a Luciferase activity in MCF-7 cells cotransfected with luciferase reporter (pMIR-Vector, pMIR-Twist1-WT, or pMIR-Twist1-mut) and miR-200c mimics with a dose dependent. b Luciferase activity in BT-549 cells cotransfected with luciferase reporter (pMIR-Vector, pMIR-Twist1-WT, or pMIR-Twist1-mut) and miR-200c inhibitor with a dose dependent. c The mRNA levels of Twist1 in MCF-7 cells overexpressing lncATB or ectopically expressing both lncATB and miR-200c. d The mRNA levels of Twist1 in BT-549 cells with downregulated lncATB or with both shATB and miR-200c inhibitor. e The protein levels of Twist1 and E-Cad in MCF-7 cells overexpressing lncATB or ectopically expressing both lncATB and miR-200c. f The protein levels of Twist1 and Vimentin in BT-549 cells with downregulated lncATB or with both shATB and miR-200c inhibitor. *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01
