miR-186 upregulation promoted melanoma cell proliferation. (A) Validation of miR-186 expression levels by polymerase chain reaction analysis subsequent to transfection. (B) MTT assays revealed that upregulation of miR-186 promoted the growth of SKMEL-28 cells and miR-186-in inhibited the growth of SKMEL-28 cells. (C) Representative micrographs (left) and quantification (right) of crystal violet staining of the cell colonies. (D) Cell cycle distribution in SKMEL-28 cells with miR-186, miR-186-in or miR-NC transfection. *P<0.05 versus control. miR-186, microRNA-186; in, inhibitor; NC, negative control; PCR, polymerase chain reaction; MTT, methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium.
