MCF2L-AS1 promotes the biological behaviors of hepatocellular carcinoma cells by regulating the miR-33a-5p/FGF2 axis
Figure 3. The effects of MCF2L-AS1 on HCC cell growth in vivo. MHCC97H and HCCLM3 cells were transfected along with MCF2L-AS1 overexpression plasmids and used for in-vivo experiments. (A) Tumor images. (B) Tumor volume. (C) Weight of tumor. (D) RT-PCR was conducted for detecting MCF2L-AS1. (E) TUNEL staining kit was used for detecting cell apoptosis. (F) Tumor images. (G) Tumor volume. (H) Tumor weight. (I) RT-PCR was conducted for detecting MCF2L-AS1. (J) The TUNEL staining kit was used for detecting cell apoptosis. Scale bar=100 μm.
