Inhibition of miR-30b-5p improves cell survival of hypoxic cardiomyocytes. AC16 cells were transfected with miR-30b-5p inhibitor or NC, followed by exposure to hypoxia for 12 h. Cell survival of cardiomyocytes was determined by MTT (a) and LDH (b) assays. LDH (%) means the percentage of LDH in cell lysates. *: hypoxia vs. normoxia; #: hypoxia + inhibitor vs. hypoxia + NC; **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001
