Restoration the expression of AKT3 played important roles in miR-384-inhibited proliferation of CRC. a–c AKT3 over-expression in SW480 cells by real-time PCR analysis or Western blot. d–f The proliferative ability of the indicated cells detected by MTT assays, colony formation assays and soft agar assays. Only cell colonies containing more than 50 cells were counted. Error bars represent mean ± SD from 3 independent experiments. **p < 0.01
