Fig. 3

Smad7 is a novel target gene of miR-519d in cervical cancer. a Potential binding pattern of miR-519d to the 3′-UTR of Smad7 mRNA and the construct information of mutant Smad7 3′-UTR. b Firefly luciferase reporter assay through co-transfecting Smad7wt-Luc or Smad7mt-Luc with a Renilla luciferase control plasmid (pRL-TK), along with NC miRNA or miR-519d mimics. Shown were relative luciferase acitivities normalized to NC miRNA group (*P < 0.05). c Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of Smad7 mRNA in cervical cancer cells after transfection with NC miRNA or miR-519d mimics (*P < 0.05). d Western blot analysis revealed that the protein level of Smad7 was markedly reduced following miR-519d overexpression in HeLa and SiHa cells
