Figure 12. Knockdown of SPATS2 inhibits cell proliferation of HCC cells. (A) SPATS2 expression in transfected HepG2 and Huh7 cells is confirmed by western blotting. (B) CCK8 assay is used to compare cell growth between SPATS2 knockdown cells and negative control cells. (*p < 0.05). (C, D) EdU assay is used to compare cell proliferation between SPATS2 knockdown cells and negative control cells. (*p < 0.05).
