Increase of miR-1-3p level inhibited the origination of the EMT process in RCC cells. RT-PCR assay or Western blot assay were used to detect the (A) mRNA or (B) protein expression levels of the epithelial marker E-cadherin and the mesenchymal marker and transcription factor Slug in A498 or CAKI-1 cells. Results shown that mRNA or protein expression of E-cadherin was improved in the miR-1-3p group compared with control groups, although the mRNA or protein expression levels of Slug was decreased in A498 or CAKI-1 cells treated with miR-1-3p compared with control groups. (The first panel of (B) is a representative illustration of the results; n=3, *P<0.01 vs Non-Transfected cells).
