RESUMEN
Corneal epithelial wound healing (CEWH) is vital for maintaining tissue integrity and transparency, but its detailed molecular mechanism is unclear. Previous our study has shown that the expression of miR-203 is dramatically down-regulated during CEWH. Such changes suggest that miR-203 is an important effector of CEWH. In this study, we confirmed down-regulation of miR-203 during CEWH in mice. In vitro experiments, we transfected miR-203 into human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs) to over-express miR-203. The MTS method, EdU detection, flow cytometry, scratch tests and transwell experiments were used to detect changes in cell proliferation, cell cycle, and cell migration after transfection. As a result, it was found that miR-203 can inhibit the proliferation of HCECs (P<0.01). The cell cycle at the G
