Curcumin inhibits MMP-2, MMP-9 and EMT-related marker expression by upregulating miR-301a-3p. (A) The expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 was determined by western blot analysis. (B) The expression of EMT-related markers was determined by western blotting. The data are expressed as the mean ± SD. *P<0.05 and **P<0.01, vs. NC; #P<0.05 and ##P<0.01, vs. CUR. EMT, epithelial-mesenchymal transition; NC, negative control; miR, microRNA; inhibitors, miR-301a-3p inhibitors; CUR, curcumin (23.31 µM).
