MiR-15a suppresses hepatocarcinoma cell migration and invasion by directly targeting .

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the function of miR-15a in HCC, and identify as a target of miR-15a.

Methods: RNA expression was evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The effects of miR-15a or on HCC cells were evaluated by transwell migration assay and western blot analysis.
