Hsa_circ_0006948 enhances cancer progression and epithelial-mesenchymal transition through the miR-490-3p/HMGA2 axis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Figure 6. Overexpression of hsa_circ_0006948 reverses the suppressive roles of miR-490-3p in ESCC. The migration (A) and invasion (B) abilities inhibited by miR-490-3p were reversed after co-transfection with hsa_circ_0006948 using transwell assay. (C) The expression of levels of vimentin, N-cadherin and HMGA2 were inhibited by down-regulated hsa_circ_0006948, but this effect was reversed by miR-490-3p inhibitor presented in Western blot analysis. (D) The expression of levels of vimentin, N-cadherin and HMGA2 were enhanced by up-regulated hsa_circ_0006948, but this effect was reversed by miR-490-3p mimics presented in Western blot analysis. * P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001.
