Figure 3

(A) Morphology of MDA-MB-435s and MDA-MB-231 cells transiently transfected with mature miR-7 or the control miRNA. (B) Immunoblot analysis of FIBRONECTIN, VIMENTIN, E-CADHERIN, N-CADHERIN and SNAIL in MDA-MB-435s and MDA-MB-231 cells transfected with mature miR-7 or control miRNA. (C) The correlation of mature miR-7 with E-CADHERIN mRNA in 42 breast cancer samples. (D) Correlation of mature miR-7 with VIMENTIN mRNA in 42 breast cancer samples. Pearson correlation coefficients (R) and P-values (p) are indicated.
