Representative micrographs of migration and invasion assays. miR-452 or si-WWP1 transfectants inhibited cancer cell migration and invasion in PCa cells.

Effects of co-transfection of miR-224 and miR-452 on migration assay Co-transfection of miR-224 and miR-452 did not show synergistic effects on cancer cell migration compared with miR-224 or miR-452 transfection in PC3 cells.
Supplementary Figure 3 TargetScan Database (release 6.2) 3,161 putative miR-452 target genes GEO Database PCa expression data (GSE 29079) Fold change (log2 ratio) > 0.1 704 candidate genes Gene expression analysis miR-452 transfection into PC3, DU145 (GSE 56243) Fold change (log2 ratio) < -0.2 10 genes Supplementary Figure 3. Strategy for selecting putative target genes of miR-452. The TargetScan program showed that 3,161 genes had putative target sites for miR-452 in their 3′ UTRs. A total of 704 genes were significantly upregulated in PCa specimens (log2 ratio > 0.1) in GSE 29079. Finally, we performed genome-wide gene expression analysis using PC3 and DU145 cells (GSE56243). Genes downregulated (log2 ratio < -0.2) by transfection with miR-452 were selected as putative target genes.

Effects of silencing WWP1 mRNA and protein expression by si-WWP1transfection in PCa cells. (A) WWP1 mRNA expression was determined at 72 h after transfection with si-WWP1. GUSB was used as an internal control. (B) WWP1 protein expression was evaluated by western blotting at 72 h after transfection with si-WWP1. GAPDH was used as a loading control. *P < 0.0001.
