miR-9 promoted proliferation, migration and angiogenesis, and inhibited apoptosis in VECs. a–b miR-9 significantly inhibited apoptosis in VECs induced by LPS compared with LPS + miR-9 control. *p < 0.05, compared with LPS + miR-9 control. c miR-9 promoted the proliferation of VECs.**p < 0.001 and ***p < 0.001, compared with miR-9 control group. d–g miR-9 increased migration and induced angiogenesis. *p < 0.05, compared with miR-9 control
