miR-1301 inhibits cell proliferation. The MTT assay was performed to monitor the proliferation rate of HepG2 cells after miR-1301 transfection. The optical density of each well was measured with a microplate spectrophotometer at 490 nm. The optical density of the miR-1301 group decreased at 24 h (A), 48 h (B), and 72 h (C) after transfection. The proliferation rate of cells decreased with increasing concentrations of inhibitor and increasing transfection time (D).
