miR-126-3p in AMI-Exo promotes angiogenesis in vitro and ex vivo. Mimic miR-126-3p and inhibitor or control (NC) were transfected into HUVECs containing AMI-Exo or Con-Exo. (A) HUVEC proliferation was measured by manual cell counting, CCK8 absorbance (B), and EdU staining (C and D). Scale bar, 50 μm. (E) Tube formation analysis of vascular formation ability indicated by tube length (F) and node number (G). Scale bar, 100 μm. Cells migration was assessed by scratch wound assays (H) and analyzed as the ratio of non-migrated area divided by the baseline wound area (I). Scale bar, 100 μm. Cell migration was analyzed using Transwell assays (J and K). Scale bar, 50 μm. (L) Microvessels were quantified using aortic sprouting assays (M). Scale bar, 200 μm. **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
