MiR-200c overexpression inhibits the proliferation of colon cancer cells by downregulating FUT4. a The transfection efficiency of miR-200c and FUT4 in LoVo cells was measured by RT-qPCR; b The transfection efficiency of miR-200c and FUT4 in SW480 cells was measured by RT-qPCR; c The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assays; d The proliferation of cells was analysed using plate colony formation assays. ^*p < 0.05 vs. the BC group; ^#p < 0.05 vs. miR-200c; ^&p < 0.05 vs. miR-200c + the NC1 group. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD. ANOVA with Turkey’s t test was used for data analysis among groups. Each group was analysed in triplicate. The resolution of figure is 300 pixels. BC: blank control group; miR-200c: miR-200c overexpression group; si-FUT4: FUT4 silencing group; miR-200c + NC1: miR-200c overexpression and FUT4 negative control group; miR-200c + FUT4: miR-200c overexpression and FUT4 overexpression group
