Figure Lengend Snippet: Role of proliferation and apoptosis mediated by the overexpression of OC2 and SKP2 in B8 cells. A The proliferation of B8 cells overexpressing OC2 was analyzed via a CCK-8 assay. B Flow cytometry assay of apoptosis levels in B8 cells overexpressing OC2. C The expression of apoptosis-related factors (SKP2, PARP, Bax, Bcl2, p21 and p27) in B8 cells overexpressing OC2. D Proliferation of B8 cells overexpressing SKP2. E Flow cytometry assay of apoptosis levels in B8 cells overexpressing SKP2. F - G The expression of apoptosis-related factors in B8 cells overexpressing SKP2 was analyzed by Western blotting and qRT‒PCR. H The phosphorylation and acetylation levels of p53 were analyzed by Western blotting in B8 cells overexpressing SKP2. I Dual-luciferase reporter assays of p53 response element-related fluorescence activity in SK-Hep1 cells with OC2 and SKP2 knockdown. The “p53-RE” group consisted of SK-Hep1 cells transfected with pGPL3-Basic plasmid with p53 response element sequence inserted. J Phosphorylation and acetylation levels of p53 in B8 cells overexpressing OC2 and SKP2. The data are expressed as mean ± SD; “ns” indicates no significant difference; * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001
