The miR-inhibition was performed with the addition of 50 nM of miR-294-3p-, miR-301b-3p-, or miR-410-3p-specific inhibitors (cat 4464084) or the negative control (cat 4464076) (miRVana, Ambion, Thermo Scientific) mixed with 6 μL FuGene Reagent Transfection (Roche, Promega, Madson, WI, USA), which was incubated for 20 min at room temperature following our previously described protocol [62 (link)] in 500 μL of serum-free RPMI 1640 medium (LGC Biotecnologia, São Paulo, SP, Brazil) [27 (link)]. After 24 h of transfection, the cells were infected as described above.
