MGAM and infection: The ectopic expression of gga-miR-16 triggered more G1 phase cell accumulation, compared with the miR-16-NC (MG+), or miR-free (MG+), or blank (MG−), which led to fewer cells into G2 + S phase, the blank (MG−) significantly raised the amount of S + G2 phases cells compared to MG infection groups (Figure 9a).
