Overexpression of miR-520a-3p inhibits the migratory and invasive capabilities of GC cells. (A) Migratory distance and (B) number of invasive cells in the miR-520a-3p mimics group were significantly decreased compared with the MOCK and NC groups in the wound healing and Transwell invasion assays. *P<0.05 vs. MOCK and NC. (C) Protein expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were significantly lower in the miR-520a-3p mimics group compared with the MOCK and NC groups. ***P<0.001 vs. MOCK and NC. Magnification, ×100. Scale bar, 100 µm. miR, microRNA; GC, gastric cancer; MOCK, mock transfected cells; NC, negative control; MMP, matrix metalloproteinase.
