H1FX-AS1 expression was significantly down-regulated and miR-324-3p was significantly up-regulated in CC tissues and cell lines. a H1FX-AS1 expression was statistically significantly lower in the CC (T) tissues than in the normal (N) tissues obtained by analyzing the TCGA datasets; b CC patients with low H1FX-AS1 expression had a poor prognosis from the TCGA datasets analyzed by GEPIA; c H1FX-AS1 expression was statistically significantly lower in the CC tissues than in the paired normal adjacent tissues from 50 CC patients analyzed by RT-qPCR; d the survival curve of the 50 CC patients with H1FX-AS1 high or low expression by KM-plotter plots, indicating poor prognosis in CC patients with H1FX-AS1 low expression; e H1FX-AS1 expression was statistically significantly lower in the CC cells (SiHa, C-4I, HeLa and C-33A) than in the normal human cervical epithelial End1/E6E7 cells analyzed by RT-qPCR, and the difference was most significant in the SiHa and the HeLa cells; f miR-324-3p expression was statistically significantly higher in the CC tissues than in the paired normal adjoining tissues from 50 CC patients analyzed by RT-qPCR; g miR-324-3p expression was statistically significantly higher in the CC cells (SiHa, C-4I, HeLa and C-33A) than in the normal human cervical epithelial End1/E6E7 cells analyzed by RT-qPCR; h Pearson correlation analysis of the association between miR-324-3p with H1FX-AS1 in the CC tissues from the 50 CC patients (same samples as in c, and f). **p < 0.01
