Detection of E-cadherin and vimentin expression by Western blotting. a Cells transfected with miR-340-5p mimics show a significant increase in E-cadherin protein expression and a dramatic decrease in vimentin protein expression. b Transfection with miR-340-5p inhibitors had an opposite effect (vimentin expression increased and E-cadherin expression decreased). c STAT3 rescued the effect of miR-340-5p mimics on vimentin and E-cadherin. d miR-340-5p mimics rescued the effect of HBV on vimentin and E-cadherin. e Expression levels of STAT3, pSTAT3 and proteins involved in migration regulated by transfecting with pHBV1.3 and/or miR-340 and/or pEF-flag-STAT3 in HuH7 cells analyzed by Western blot
