The effect of miR-29a-3p on GC cell migration and invasion. (A) Wound healing assays on the confluent layers of miR-29a-3p mimics-transfected BGC-823 cells (left) and miR-29a-3p inhibitor-transfected BCG-823 cells (right). Representative images of wound healing assays were acquired at 0 and 48 h after wounding. Representative images (upper) and bar graphs (bottom) depicting the migration (B) and invasion (C) ability of BGC-823 cell after the 48 h transfection of negative control mimics or miR-29a-3p mimics (left) (*P < 0.05) and miR-29a-3p inhibitor (right) compared to its control (*P < 0.05).
