-
Figure 4E HeLa pcDNA3 0h and pSilencer-NC 0h appear to overlap
-
Figure 4E HeLa pcDNA3/TIMP3 0h and pSilencer-NC 0h appear to overlap
-
Figure 4E C33A pcDNA3 48h and shR-TIMP3 0h appear to overlap
-
Figure 6A pcDNA3 at 30 minutes, 60 minutes and 90 minutes, and miR-G-10 at 60 minutes and 90 minutes appear to overlap
-
Figure 6A Anti-miR-G-10 at 10 minutes and pSilencer-NC at 30 minutes appear to overlap
-
Four panels within figures 2F, 4C and 5C appear to overlap representing different conditions in each instance
-
the DAPI panel in figure 7F pcDNA3 + pcDNA3, and miR-G-10 + shR-PIK3R3 appear to overlap with rotation
