In order to verify whether miR-93 selectively regulates IL-8 gene expression within a group of other pro-inflammatory genes, a 27-plex cytokine assay was carried on in the supernatants collected from glioma U251 cells cultured in the absence or in the presence of antagomiR-93 or pre-miR-93. Here, CXCL8 is linked to glioma.
