miR-215-5p mediated the protective effects of ADSCs-Exos on HG-induced migration of MPC5 cells. (a) The expression of EMT-related miRNAs including miR-215-5p, miR-879-5p, miRNA-217a-5p, miRNA-3066-5p, and miRNA-7a-5p was determined by qRT-PCR in HG-induced MPC5 cells with or without ADSCs-Exo treatment. (b) Cell migration was evaluated by Transwell assay in HG-induced MPC5 cells treated with ADSCs-Exo NC and ADSCs-Exo-miRNA inhibitors. (c) The number of migratory cells was counted by ImageJ software in different groups. (d) The expression of miR-215-5p was measured by qRT-PCR in HG-induced MPC5 cells treated with ADSCs-Exo NC and ADSCs-Exo-miR215-5p inhibitor. ; .
