MiR-9-5P has a promoting role in CD44+ PCSCs. (A) After sorting of CD44+ and CD44− PC3 PCa cells by flow cytometry, decreased expression of miR-9 in the CD44+ PC3 cells was mediated by the transfected miR-9 inhibitor, and the invasion, clone formation and sphere formation abilities of CD44+ PC3 cells were detected 48 h later. (B) Sorting of CD44+ and CD44− PC3 PCa cells was performed by flow cytometry, and high expression of miR-9-5p was detected in the CD44− PC3 cells transfected with the miR-9-5p mimic. After 48 h, the invasion, clone formation and sphere formation abilities of CD44− PC3 cells were detected. The results are represented as the mean ± S.D. from three independent assays. *P < 0.05.
