miR-200c suppresses the proliferation and migration of HESCs in vitro. a Transwell assay to evaluate the migration of HESCs treated with the miR-200c mimic or inhibitor. Migrated cells were stained with crystal violet (magnification, 200×). b Number of migrated cells was calculated and is depicted in the bar chart. c EdU assay to evaluate the proliferation of HESCs treated with the miR-200c mimic or inhibitor (magnification, 200×). d Number of proliferating cells was calculated and is depicted in the bar chart. All data are shown as the means ± SD of three independent experiments (**P < 0.01, Student’s t test). EdU 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine, Mimic NC negative control miRNA mimic, Inhibitor NC negative control miRNA inhibitor
