MicroRNA-7 (miR-7) inhibits tumor growth in vivo. A, B, and C, Effect of miR-7 on the growth of SGC7901 cells inoculated into nude mice. Male BALB/cA nude mice were subcutaneously injected with 5 × 106 SGC7901 cells infected with lentiviruses harboring miR-7 negative control (miR-NC) or miR-7. Tumor volume and weight of 6 tumor tissues were monitored over time as indicated, and the tumor was excised and weighed after 14 days. MicroRNA-7 caused a decrease in tumor volume and weight. Bar = 2 mm. D, The expression levels of mTOR proteins from the 3 tumor tissues of miR-7 expressing group were lower than those of the miR-NC group. Data represent mean (standard deviation). *Significant difference at P < .05. **Significant difference at P < .01.
