To further determine the role of Mgat3 in the miR-23a-mediated promotion of metastasis, we analyzed N-linked glycosylation on the cell membrane of miR-23a-transfected mouse HCC cells using flow cytometry (FCM) analysis by labeling specific N-glycans with fluorescein isothiocyanate lectins (FITC-PHA-E and FITC-PHA-L). Here, MGAT3 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
