Figure Lengend Snippet: PUM2 knockdown inhibits viability in H9C2 cells. (A) Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR results after PUM2 knockdown. (B) Representative western blot bands after PUM2 knockdown. (C) PUM2 inhibited viability at 48 and 72 h after transfection. ** P≤0.01 and **** P<0.0001. PUM2, pumilio RNA-binding family member 2; NC, negative control; DSI, dicer-substrate small interfering RNA.
Article Snippet: The integrity of RNA was further verified by 1.0% agarose gel electrophoresis. cDNA was synthesized utilizing a reverse transcription kit (cat. no. R323-01; Vazyme Biotech Co., Ltd.).
