Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Datasets related to HCC, gene splicing, RBPs, glycometabolism, and antisense transcripts were downloaded from the GeneCards database ( https://www.genedcards.org ), and a Venn diagram was constructed to show the intersections. (B) qPCR was used to assess the mRNA levels of TUG1, BMP2, ATM, and RBM10 in cells overexpressing lncRNA-ISM1. (C) RNA immunoprecipitation assays were performed using an anti-RBM10 antibody in MHCC-97H cells. (D) After MHCC-97H cells were transfected with RBM10 siRNA for 24 h, qPCR was used to assess the mRNA level of RBM10 in the cells. (E) MHCC-97H cells overexpressing lncRNA-ISM1 were transfected with RBM10 siRNA, and Western blotting was used to assess the protein expression levels of ISM1-AS, ISM1, RBM10, GLUT4, HK2, LDH, and PKM2, as well as the phosphorylation levels of Akt and S6. The statistical results are shown in (F) . (G) EdU-based proliferation assays were performed using MHCC-97H cells treated as described in (E) . (H) Colony formation assays were performed using MHCC-97H cells treated as described in (E) for 14 days. (I) Transwell invasion assays were performed using MHCC-97H cells treated as described in (E) for 24 h. The data are presented as the mean ± standard error of the mean (mean ± SEM). n = 3. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, and **** p < 0.0001. Scale bar = 100 μm.
