RT-PCR tested Mir-372 expression in 37 HCC tissues samples and corresponding normal tissues (−14.89 ± 2.83 vs −12.38 ± 2.96, **P < 0.01). a: ΔCt (U6B minus mir-372) was used to compared the expression difference between tumor and normal tissues (−14.89 ± 2.83 vs −12.38 ± 2.96, **P < 0.01); b: CpG islands located approximately 1,200 bp upstream of the promoter.
