Article Title: Long Non-Coding RNA Prostate Cancer-Associated Transcript 7 (PCAT7) Induces Poor Prognosis and Promotes Tumorigenesis by Inhibiting mir-134-5p in Non-Small-Cell Lung (NSCLC)
doi: 10.12659/MSM.907904
Figure Lengend Snippet: PCAT7 promotes metastasis and enhances the epithelial-tomesenchymal transition of NSCLC cells. ( A ) Wound healing assay showed that PACT7 accerlated migration ability (×50); ( B ) Transwell migration assay and Matrigel invasion assay showed that NY-SAR-35 promoted migration/invasion capacity (×50); ( C ) Western blot analysis of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, and Vimentin expression levels. The columns show the mean for 3 separate experiments; bars, sd. * P<0.05. ** P<0.01
Article Snippet: We purchased 6 NSCLC cell lines (A549, H292, H460, H1703, H358, and H1975) and a normal human lung bronchial epithelial cell line (16-HBE) from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, USA) and cultured them in RPMI-1640 Medium (Gibco BRL, Gaithersburg, MD) with 10% fetal bovine serum, ampicillin, and streptomycin in a humidified atmosphere of 95% air and 5% CO 2 , with the temperature at 37°C.
