Figure 2. RBX1 facilitated the cell invasion and migration of TNBC in vivo and in vitro. (A, B) RBX1 mRNA and protein levels in normal breast epithelial, TNBC, and non-TNBC cell lines. ***P<0.001. (C, D) The analysis of qRT-PCR and western blot were applied for determining the RBX1 expression levels of in BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells stably transfected with the plasmid silenced by RBX1. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. (E, F) The assays of Transwell invasion and migration of BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells transfected by the plasmid with knockdown of RBX1. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. (G, H) The assays of Transwell invasion and migration of SUM159PT cells transfected by plasmid with overexpression of RBX1. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. (I) H&E staining of sections embedded with paraffin of metastatic nodules in the lungs. *P < 0.05.
