Luciferase reporter gene assay was performed using the Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay System (Promega Corporation, E1910) according to the manufacturer’s instruction. Luciferase reporter assays for ATG5, ATG7 and Linc02527, wild-type or mutant reporter constructs (termed WT or Mut; obtained from Genepharma) were cotransfected into HTR8 cells in 24-well plates with 100 nM MIR3185 or 100 nM miR-NC and Renilla plasmid by using Endofectin-Plus (Gene-Copoeia, Z01010A). All experiments were performed at least 3 times.
