Effects of miR-206 on the proliferation, migration and invasion of colorectal cancer cells. (A) Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR analysis was performed to detect miR-206 expression in HCT116 and SW480 cells following transfection with miR-206 mimic or inhibitor for 48 h. (B) Viability of HCT116 and SW480 cells was assessed via the MTT assay following transfection with miR-206 mimic or miR-206 inhibitor. (C and D) Cell migratory and invasive abilities were assessed via Transwell assays. *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001. miR, microRNA; NC, negative control.
