Article Title: E2F8 regulates the proliferation and invasion through epithelial-mesenchymal transition in cervical cancer

doi: 10.7150/ijbs.37686

Figure Lengend Snippet: E2F8 expression in cervical cancer cell lines and correlation with suppressed cell proliferation. (A, B) The expression levels of E2F8 RNA and protein were significantly higher in some cervical cancer cell lines (CaSki, HeLa, and ME180) compared to that in normal control cells. (C) Using siE2F8, E2F8 knockdown was performed in E2F8-elevated HeLa cell lines. (D) The proliferation of HeLa cells transfected with siE2F8 and negative control siNC was determined using the CCK-8 assay. (E) Using shE2F8, E2F8 knockdown was performed in E2F8-elevated ME180 cell lines. (F) The proliferation of ME180 cells transfected with shE2F8 and negative scrambled control was determined using the CCK-8 assay. Each assay was performed in triplicate. Data are means ± standard deviation. ** P <0.01, ***P<0.001 vs siNC and scrambled control.

Figure Lengend Snippet: E2F8 promotes cell migration and invasion. (A, C) Wound healing assay observed under the optical microscope was used to determine cell migration using si and shE2F8. E2F8 knockdown was performed in E2F8-high HeLa and ME180 cell lines. (B, D) Cell invasion was observed under the optical microscope. Matrigel invasion assays were used to determine invasion after 48 h in HeLa and ME180 cells. Each assay was performed in triplicate. Data represent means ± standard deviation. ** P <0.01, *** P <0.001 vs. siNC and scrambled control.

Blue fluorescence indicates the fluorescence of 1 P1 (B), 1 P2 (F), and 1 P3 (J) (λ ex = 405 nm). Red fluorescence is mitochondrial staining by Mito Tracker Deep Red FM (50 nM) (Thermo Fisher) (C, G, K) (λ ex = 640 nm).
