miR-143-3p directly targets FOSL2. (A) The sequences of the putative miR-143-3p binding sites in wild type and mutant (red) FOSL2-3′UTR. (B) Determination of FOSL2 protein in MG-63 cell after transfection with miR-144 mimics, inhibitors and miR-NC, NC-in or miR-144 lentivirus infection. (C) Determination of FOSL2 mRNA in MG-63 and 143B cell lines after transfected with miR-144 mimics and miR-NC. (D) FOSL2 mRNA in MG-63 and 143B cell lines after transfected with miR-143-3p-in and NC-in. (E) The relative luciferase activity of luciferase reports with wild type or mutant FOSL2-3′UTR were determined in MG-63 cell line, which were transfected with the miR-143-3p mimics or miR-NC. Statistical significance was observed between the wild type and the mutant groups. (F) Spearman’s correlation analysis between miR-143-3p expression and FOSL2 mRNA level.
