Figure 2.LncRNA SNHG7 acted upstream of miR-122-5p. (A) The schematic diagram of binding sites between lncRNA SNHG7 and miR-122-5p, and the binding capacity was evaluated by luciferase reporter assay. (B and C) Relative expression of lncRNA SNHG7 in HeLa cells with SNHG7 OE or si-SNHG7. (D and E) Relative expression of miR-122-5p in HeLa cells with SNHG7 OE or si-SNHG7. WT SNHG7, wild type lncRNA SNHG7; Mut SNHG7, mutant type lncRNA SNHG7; mimics NC, negative control mimics; SNHG7 OE, lncRNA SNHG7 overexpression; si-NC, negative control siRNA; si-SNHG7, lncRNA SNHG7 siRNA. ***p < 0.001.
