Over-expression of miRNA-30a-5p inhibits cancer stem cell maintenance in LUAD. (A) The correlation between miRNA-30a-5p and cancer stem cell maintenance-related factors, including SOX2, CD44, OCT4, and NANO in TCGA-LUAD, was examined using Pearson’s correlation analysis. (B, C) Relative mRNA expressions of cancer stem cell marker genes, including CD44, OCT4, SOX2, NANOG in A549, and SPC-A1cells, were examined by Real-time RT-PCR upon over-expression of miRNA-30a-5p. (D, E) Tumor sphere formation abilities of indicated cells after over-expression of miRNA-30a-5p were examined by tumorsphere assay. Scale bar=50 μm. . ***P < 0.001.
