Reduced miR-548b expression in HCC tissues and cell lines. (A) Expression of miR-548b in 51 pairs of HCC tissues and matched adjacent noncancerous tissues was determined using RT-qPCR. (B) RT-qPCR was used to analyze miR-548b expression in two human HCC cell lines (Huh7 and Hep3B) and in an immortalized normal human liver epithelial cell line (L-02). *P<0.05 vs. noncancerous tissues or L-02. RT-qPCR, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR; miR-548b, microRNA-548b; HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma.
