miR‐1225 upregulation suppresses the proliferation of Huh‐7 and HepG2 cells. The cell lines were transfected with the miR‐1225 mimic and NC mimic. qPCR (A, B) was conducted to confirm miR‐1225 upregulation in both cell lines. (C, D) Proliferation of Huh‐7 and HepG2 cells was measured at 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72 hours after transfection using the MTT assay. (E, F) CCK‐8 assay of the Huh‐7 and HepG2 cells transfected with miR‐1225 mimic and NC mimic was observed by fluorescence microscope. Outcome is displayed as mean ± SD. *P < .05 vs control group
