Sirtuin 1 was a Direct Target of miR-12129. A, MicroRNA-12129 binding site within the 3’-UTR of SIRT1 was predicted. B, Relative activities of luciferase reporters in NCI-N87 cell lines, C, SNU-5 cell lines. D, Pearson’s correlation analysis of the relative expression levels of miR-12129 and the relative SIRT1 mRNA levels in gastric cancer tissues (e) qRT-PCR analysis of SIRT1 expression in gastric cancer tissues (N = 30). F, Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis of SIRT1 expression in gastric cancer cell lines. *P < .05 vs Control. miR indicates microRNA; qRT-PCR, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction; SIRT1, sirtuin 1; 3’-UTR, 3′ untranslated region.
