miR-17-5p inhibits apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells after paclitaxel treatment. a, b The caspase 3/7 activity was decreased in OVCAR-3 and SKOV-3 cells transfected with miR-17-5p after paclitaxel treatment. c The TUNEL positive cells after OVCAR-3 and SKOV-3 cells were treated with paclitaxel. d The quantification of the percentage of TUNEL-positive cells. e The apoptotic proteins level in OVCAR-3 cells transfected with miR-17-5p mimic after paclitaxel treatment. f The apoptotic proteins level in SKOV-3 cells transfected with miR-17-5p mimic after paclitaxel treatment. All experiments were performed three times in triplicate
