MiR-1224-5p inhibits migration and invasion by targeting SP1. (A) Expression of SP1 mRNA and protein was verified in transfected CRC cell lines by qRT-PCR and western blot. (B) Expression of SP1 was confirmed by qRT-PCR and western blot in co-transfected CRC cell lines. (C,E) Wound healing assay and Transwell assays confirmed that SP1 knockdown abrogated the effects of miR-1224-5p loss on migration and invasion of SW480 cells, scale bars: 300 μm (C) and 100 μm (E). (D,F) SP1 restoration promoted migration and invasion of miR-1224-5p-overexpressing of HCT116 cells, scale bars: 300 μm (D) and 50 μm (F). Data represent the mean ± SD from three independent experiments. Student's t-test was used to determine statistical significance: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001.
