SNAI3 and hepatocellular carcinoma: The results showed that cell proliferation of HepG2 and MHCC-97H cells was promoted with miR-27a-3p and miR-34a-5p inhibition; however, the inhibitory effect of SNAI3-AS1-siRNA on HCC cell growth could be partially restored by miR-27a-3p and miR-34a-5p inhibition (Fig. 6a).
