STAT3 is targeted by miR-337-3p. a Identification of miR-337-3p’s target genes by 4 databases. b Predicted binding sites between miR-337-3p and STAT3. c miR-337-3p mimics attenuated the luciferase activity of STAT3-WT group. d RIP assay was used to validate the correlation between miR-337-3p and STAT3. e Transfection efficiency of miR-337-3p mimics was explored by qRT-PCR. f, g MiR-337-3p mimics reduced STAT3 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma cells. h MiR-337-3p was negatively correlated with STAT3 in hepatocellular carcinoma. *p < 0.05
