Influence of let-7b on colony formation of melanoma cell in vitro. G361 melanoma cells were transfected for 48 h with 30 nM let-7b or control precursor microRNA and grown in soft agar for 20 days at 37 °C. (A) High-power views (times 100 magnification) of colonies from one representative experiment. (B) Graphic presentation of numbers of colony-forming units from three independent experiments. Data in (B) are given as mean values +/- SD. Asterisk indicates statistical significance of the difference in number of colonies of let-7b-transfected compared with control miRNA-transfected cells (P < 0.05; Mann-Whitney-U test).
