Western blot data indicated that that after miR-98 upregulation, the E-cadherin protein levels were increased, while the protein levels of N-cadherin, Fibronectin, vimentin were reduced in HepG2 and SMMC-7721 cells (Figure 4C-4D), indicating that the EMT is downregulated after overexpression of miR-98 in HCC cells. The gene discussed is CDH1; the disease is hepatocellular carcinoma.
