PubChem CID # is the compound’s identifier (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/). The
ΔTm MAX was calculated by taking the
melting temperature shift difference of pre-miR-21 treated with the compound
vs untreated. aThe apparent Kd
(Kdapp) was measured by direct
binding assay using intrinsic fluorescence max 545/580 nm.
bGI50 was determined
using the XTT cell viability assay. Calculations were performed using the
non-linear regression fit (Sigmoidal, 4PL) function in GraphPad Prism. cNormal
colon cells used were ATCC CRL-1790.
d1,5-bis[3-(2-hydroxyethylamino)propylamino]anthracene-9,10-dione
hydrochloride. All experiments were repeated in triplicate.
