MiR-455-5p is decreased in CCA cancer tissue samples and overexpression of miR-455-5p inhibits CCA cells proliferation, migration and invasion, but promotes apoptosis. (A) CCA samples (n=36) and normal tissues (n=9) in TCGA dataset from ENCORI Pan-Cancer Analysis Platform showed that miR-455-5p expression was significantly down‐regulated in tumor tissues. TFK-1 cells were transfected with miR‐455-5p mimics (455-m) or non-specific mimic control (NS-m) at 100 nM for 24h. (B) EdU analysis of cell proliferation, Scale bar, 20 μM. (C) FACS analysis of cell apoptosis. (D) Western blot analysis of cleaved caspase 3, Caspase 3, Bax and Bcl-2 protein expression. (E) Matrigel-coated Transwell analysis of migration and invasion, scale bar, 50 μm. (F) Western blot analysis of MMP9 and Vimentin protein expression. B to F, n = 3 independent experiments. Values were given as means ± SEM. *P < 0.05.
