miR-29b-3p is bound to XIST. a The potential binding sites of XIST and miR-29b-3p were predicted by DIANA tools. b, c Luciferase activity was analyzed in HSF cells co-transfected with XIST-WT or XIST-MUT and miR-NC, miR-29b-3p, in-miR-NC or in-miR-29b-3p. d The expression of mR-29b-3p was measured in HSF cells transfected with pcDNA, XIST, si-NC or si-XIST. e The association between the expression of XIST and miR-29b-3p in burn wounds was analyzed. *P < 0.05
