Figure 7. Depletion of KCND2 and VSTM4 reduces the proliferation and migration of TNBC cells in vitro. (A) The knockdown efficiency of siRNA targeting KCND2 in BT-549 cells was verified. (B) EdU incorporation analysis and (C) CCK-8 assay revealed that the knockdown of KCND2 affected the cell proliferation in BT-549 cells. (D) The knockdown efficiency of siRNA targeting VSTM4 in MDA-MB-231 cells was verified. (E) EdU incorporation analysis and (F) CCK-8 assay revealed that the knockdown of VSTM4 impacts cell proliferation in MDA-MB-231 cells. (G) The wound healing assay demonstrated that the knockdown of KCND2 affected the migration of BT-549 cells. (H) Wound healing assay results showed that the knockdown of VSTM4 impacted the migration of MDA-MB-231 cells. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
