Figure 9. FTL promoted proliferation in HCC. (A) TCGA database analysis indicated that FTL mRNA expression is increased in HCC. (B) Immunohistochemical results suggest that FTL is highly expressed in tumor tissues. (C) Western blot analysis confirmed that the expression of FTL was inhibited by SIRNA. (D) CCK8 assay indicated that FTL inhibition significantly suppressed the proliferation in HCC cells. (E) EdU assays indicated that FTL inhibition significantly suppressed the proliferation in HCC cells. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
