ST7L mediates the effects of miR-23b on HCC progression in vivo. HCC mouse model was constructed using stable infected HCCLM3 cells using the corresponding lentiviruses. (a and b) The sizes of local liver tumors in the three groups were calculated and compared in the right diagrams. Results were represented as mean±S.D. (n=4). (c) Relative expression levels of Ki67 and ST7L were analyzed by immunohistochemistry. (d) Typical pictures for lung metastasis of HCC mouse model. (e) The percentage of mice with presence (metastatic lesion⩾1) or absence (metastatic lesion=0) of lung metastasis was calculated (n=8). *P<0.05, **P<0.01
