To investigate the effect of microRNA 21 (miR-21) on hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) proliferation and apoptosis, and further to study its potential mechanisms. LX-2 cells were divided into miR-21 mimic group (Mimic), miR-21 mimic negative control group (NM), miR-21 inhibitor group (Inhibitor), miR-21 inhibitor negative control group (NC), and blank control group (Control). The cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay and the cell migration and invasion were detected by scratch and transwell assay.
