Furthermore, CNE-1 and 5-8F cells were transfected with the miR-24-3p mimic with or without GAD1, and an MTT assay demonstrated that miR-24-3p suppressed NPC growth, while cotransfection with the GAD1-encoding plasmid partially restored proliferation (Figures 4(f) and 4(g)). This evidence concerns the gene GAD1 and nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
