In vivo effect of 5azadC and miR-199-3p expression on WM-266-4 lung metastasis. a Experimental outline: WM-266-4 cells treated or not with 100 nM of 5azadC for 3 days or transfected with miR-199-3p mimetic at 0.5 or 1 nM for 48 h were injected in the tail vein (IV) of SCID mice. Lungs were recovered for immunohistochemical analysis 21 days after injection. b A representative image of the stained lung is shown for each group. Plots representing the percentage area and the total number of metastasis on one slice for each mouse in non-treated (NT) and 5azadC-treated are shown for two independent experiments. Medians are shown. c Same as in B for miR Ctl and miR-199-3p tested at two concentrations, 0.5 and 1 nM. **P value < 0.01, ***P value < 0.001
