MicroRNA-429 Modulates Hepatocellular Carcinoma Prognosis and Tumorigenesis

Figure 1

MiR-429 expression correlated with HCC tumorigenesis. (a) MiR-429 expression was evaluated in the tumor tissues, compared with in the adjacent noncancerous tissues. The relative expression of miR-429 is shown as box plots, with horizontal lines representing the median, the bottom, and the top of the boxes representing the 25th and 75th percentiles, respectively, and vertical bars representing the range of data. We compared the difference among groups using the Student -test. (b) MiR-429 expression was higher in cancer cell line SMMC-7721 than in noncancer cell line QSG-7701.
