To assess whether miRNA‐483‐3p directly targeted NDRG1, we performed luciferase reporter assays in two CRC cell lines expressing low endogenous miRNA‐483‐3p levels (HCT116 and SW48), and one expressing high endogenous miRNA‐483‐3p levels (GP2D; Table S5 and Fig. S3D). The gene discussed is NDRG1; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
