The effects of miR-378 on capillary tube formation of HUVECs on Matrigel. (a) Effects of capillary tube formation of HUVECs and EPC on Matrigel. (b) Effects of miR-378 on capillary tube formation of HUVECs on Matrigel. BMMSC that transfected with miR-378 mimetic, miR-378 inhibitor, and negative controls. After 14 days of incubation, the numbers of capillary tubes formed were counted (c). The experiment was repeated twice with comparable results. The untreated cells (control) were assigned to values of 100 and the results were presented as mean ± S.D. (). Significance: and versus control group.
