miR-515-5p lessened PCa cell malignancy and glycolysis by targeting HOXA1. A and B HOXA1 mRNA and protein levels were estimated in PCa cells transfected with miR-NC, miR-515-5p, miR-515-5p + pcDNA-NC, or miR-515-5p + pcDNA-HOXA1. C–F Cell viability, proliferation, migration and invasion were determined in the above cells. G and H Detection of PCNA, MMP2, and MMP9 protein levels was done in the above cells. I and J Measurement of glucose uptake and lactate production was conducted in the above cells. *P < 0.05
