Figure Lengend Snippet: Expression and structure of circHMCU in BC. A Expression of circHMCU in Tumor tissues ( n = 66) and Normal tumor ( n = 66) was measured by qRT-PCR. B The expression of circHMCU in BC cell lines (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) and human normal mammary epithelial cell (MCF10A) were determined by qRT-PCR. C Schematic diagram showed the back-splicing was constituted with exon 3 and exon 4 in chr10: 74,474,868–74,475,660. D After RNase R treatment, the expression of circHMCU and linear HMCU were assessed by qRT-PCR. E After Actinomycin D treatment, the levels of circHMCU and linear HMCU were analyzed by qRT-PCR. * P < 0.05

Figure Lengend Snippet: CircHMCU was a sponge of miR-4458. A The predicted binding site between circHMCU and miR-4458 was exhibited. B and C The binding relationship between circHMCU and miR-4458 was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RIP assay. D The expression of miR-4458 in normal tissues ( n = 66) and tumor tissues ( n = 66) was tested by qRT-PCR. E miR-4458 expression was measured in BC cell lines (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) and human normal mammary epithelial cell (MCF10A). F Pearson analysis was conducted to analyze the correlation between circHMCU and miR-4458 in BC tissues. * P < 0.05

Figure Lengend Snippet: MiR-4458 directly target PGK1. A The predicted binding site between miR-4458 and PGK1was exhibited. B The binding relationship between miR-4458 and PGK1 was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. C The expression of PGK1 in normal tissues ( n = 66) and tumor tissues ( n = 66) was tested by qRT-PCR. D The expression of PGK1 protein in in normal tissues and tumor tissues was tested by western blot. E PGK1 protein expression was measured in BC cell lines (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) and human normal mammary epithelial cell (MCF10A). F Pearson analysis was conducted to analyze the correlation between miR-4458 and PGK1 in BC tissues. G The expression of PGK1 protein was exhibited by western blot.* P < 0.05

Figure Lengend Snippet: β-escin induces apoptosis in trastuzumab-sensitive and –resistant cells. A Chemical structure of β-escin. B The changes in morphology of BT474 and SKBR3 cells after treatment of β-escin (10-20 μM, 48 h) as observed by phase-contrast microscopy. C Representative phase-contrast images of JIMT-1 and MDA-MB-453 cells after treatment with β-escin (10-30 μM, 48 h). D , E Trastuzumab-sensitive SKBR3 and BT474 cells ( D ) and trastuzumab-resistant MDA-MB-453 and JIMT-1 cells ( E ) were treated with various concentrations of β-escin (1-100 μM) for 48 h, and cell viability was evaluated by MTS assay (**** p <0.0001). F , G BT474 ( F ) and JIMT-1 cells ( G ) were treated with β-escin (10-20 μM and 20-30 μM, respectively) for 48 h, and the percentages of cells in the sub-G1 phase were quantified using flow cytometry (** p <0.01). H , I The percentages of the early and late apoptotic cells in BT474 ( H ) and JIMT-1 cells ( I ) following exposure to β-escin (10-20 μM and 20-30 μM, respectively) were determined by annexin V/PI staining (**** p <0.0001). J Normal human mammary gland epithelial MCF10A cells were treated with β-escin (10-30 μM) for 48 h, and the sub-G1 fraction was analyzed (not significant, NS). The results are expressed as mean ± SEM after three independent experiments and analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Bonferroni’s post hoc test
