miR-326 and curcumin combination treatment promoted apoptosis and restrained the migration of glioma cells. (A) The annexin V-PI assay revealed increased apoptosis in glioma cells following combination treatment. Percentages of apoptotic cells are shown in the histogram. (B) Western blot assay of the levels of caspase-3, cleaved PARP, caspase-8, MCL1, bcl-xl and RIP1 after miR-326 and curcumin treatment alone and in combination. (C) Western blot of the expression of caspase-3 and caspase-8 after transfected either with negative control or 3 different siRNA sequences againest caspase-3 and caspase-8. (D) Cell death of different treatments was determined by trypan blue staining. (E) Cell migration was analyzed using the transwell assay. Bars represent 200 μm. The data represent the mean ± SEM of 3 replicates (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001).
