doi: 10.1186/s13062-026-00761-z

Figure Lengend Snippet: FAM83D was associated with metastasis of CC. ( A ) Western blotting was employed to examine the expression of FAM83D in HeLa and SiHa cells with stable overexpression or knockdown of FAM83D. ( B-C ) Colony formation assay was conducted to evaluate the clonogenic ability of HeLa and SiHa cells following the overexpression or knockdown of FAM83D. ( D ) CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell viability in FAM83D-silenced HeLa and SiHa cells treated with different concentrations of 5-fluorouracil, cisplatin, oxaliplatin, and paclitaxel for 48 h. The inhibition rate was subsequently calculated. ( E-I ) Subcutaneous injection of FAM83D-silenced and control HeLa cells into BALB/c Nude mice ( n = 6) was used to determine the tumorigenicity. The tumor growth curves, tumor volumes, and tumor weights were measured. ( J ) And then, the nude mice that developed liver metastases were counted. ( K ) Representative images of liver metastases developed from FAM83D-silenced and control HeLa cells were shown, while ( L ) H&E staining of liver metastases in nude mice was presented. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001
