XIST regulates proliferation, migration and ECM synthesis in thermal injured-HSF cells by sponging miR-29b-3p. HSF cells were transfected with miR-NC, miR-29b-3p, miR-29b-3p and pcDNA or XIST for 24 h and then suffered from thermal injury. miR-29b-3p expression level (a), ECM synthesis (b), cell proliferation (c) and migration (d) were detected in thermal injured-HSF cells by qRT-PCR, western blot, CCK-8 or trans-well assays. *P < 0.05
