Fig. 7. miR-142-5p silencing reversed the inhibitory effect of METTL3 silencing on OS cell proliferation by upregulating ARMC8 transcription level.

miR-142-5p inhibitor (miR-inhi) was transfected into U2OS cells, with miR-NC as negative control. After 48 h, A miR-142-5p expression in U2OS cells was determined using RT-qPCR. Then, miR-142-5p inhibitor-transfected U2OS cells were treated with si-METTL3#2 for 48 h. B ARMC8 mRNA level in cells was detected using RT-qPCR. CE The proliferation of OS cells was measured using CCK-8 assay (C), colony formation assay (14 days) (D), and EdU staining (E). The cell experiment was repeated three times independently. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation. Data in panel A were analyzed using t-test. Data in panels B/D, E were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, and data in panel C were analyzed using two-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test, **p < 0.01.
