Figure 6. The positive effect of miR-138-5p inhibitor on OvC progression was relieved by SDC3 silence. (A) The high transfection efficiency of sh-SDC3 and miR-138-5p inhibitor was detected by qRT-PCR in CAOV3 and SKOV3 cells. (B) The high transfection efficiency of sh-SDC3 and miR-138-5p inhibitor was further measured by western blot analysis in CAOV3 and SKOV3 cells. (C) sh-SDC3 attenuated the promotive effect of miR-138-5p inhibitor on cell viability in CAOV3 and SKOV3 cells. (D) The positive effect of miR-138-5p inhibitor on colony formation was overturned by sh-SDC3. (E) The positive role of miR-138-5p inhibitor in cell migration was relieved by sh-SDC3. (F) The promotion effect of miR-138-5p inhibitor on cell invasion was impaired by sh-SDC3. Blank, blank control. NC, negative control. Sh, sh-SDC3. Inhibitor, miR-138-5p inhibitor. *P<0.05, **P<0.001 compared with blank control. ##P<0.001 compared with co-transfection of sh-SDC3 and miR-138-5p inhibitor.
