doi: 10.1186/s13046-025-03283-0

Figure Lengend Snippet: Histological analysis of miR-503 target genes and transcriptomic analysis of miR-503 inhibition. A Evaluation of the expression of BTG1, CCNG1, EDG1 and TIMP2, in normal pleural (PL) and pleural mesothelioma tissues (EPM epithelial istotype; SPM, sacomatoid istotype). Yellow Scale bar = 100 μm. Data shown are mean ± S.D. of five independent experiments. B IHC analysis of the putative miR-503 target genes on mice tumors treated with LNPs-anti-miR-503 or empty LNPs (original magnification 20X). A and B confirm the in vitro results. C Transcriptome analysis in MSTO cells after miR-503 inhibition detected about 500 deregulated genes (red upregulated, green downregulated). D Expression analysis of MM biomarkers deregulated by inhibition of miR-503 in MM cells. E q-PCR analysis in human MM samples of the miR-503 MM biomarkers confirms the inverse expression only for CXCL8, SERPINE1 and SPP. F IHC analysis of the miR-503 deregulated MM biomarkers on mice tumors treated with LNPs-anti-miR-503 or empty LNPs (original magnification 20X). For each IHC panel bar plots report the score for the samples analysed. Data presented as the mean ± SD of at least three independent experiments ( n = 3) for the in vitro experiments while for the in vivo analysis numbers of samples are reported in Methods. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 *** p < 0.001 **** p < 0.0001 vs. control
