EVA1A and hepatocellular carcinoma: The RT‒qPCR results showed significantly higher expression of miR-103a-3p in the HCC cell lines PLC-PRF5, QGY-7703 and Hccl-M3 than in the normal human liver cell line L02 (P < 0.001, Fig. 3D), which was opposite to the results for EVA1A expression in the HCC cell lines (Fig. 1E).
