LHX2 promotes malignancy and inhibits autophagy via mTOR in osteosarcoma and is negatively regulated by miR-129-5p
Figure 2. LHX2 silencing decreases the proliferation, migration and invasion of OS cells. (A) qRT-PCR and WB analysis for the knockdown efficiency of LHX2 using three different short hairpins. (B) qRT-PCR and WB analysis for LHX2 silencing efficiency. (C–D) CCK8 and colony formation assays for 143B and MG63 cells after LHX2 silencing. (E) Western blot analysis of Ki67 expression. (F) Representative images of wound healing assays; cell migration rates were measured after 24 h. Scale bar: 100 μm. (G) Representative images of transmembrane cells in shLHX2 and control groups. *P <0.05, **P<0.01. Scale bars: 200 μm.
