Fig. 5From: Ribonucleic acid-binding protein CPSF6 promotes glycolysis and suppresses apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma cells by inhibiting the BTG2 expressionInterference with BTG2 can partially reverse the effects of interference with CPSF6 on apoptosis and glycolysis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. A The viability of Huh-7 cells transfected with sh-CPSF6-2 and shRNA-BTG2-1 was detected by MTT assay. B The apoptosis of Huh-7 cells transfected with sh-CPSF6-2 and shRNA-BTG2-1 was analyzed by TUNEL assay. C The expression of apoptosis-related proteins in Huh-7 cells transfected with sh-CPSF6-2 and shRNA-BTG2-1 was determined by Western blot analysis. D The glucose uptake activity of Huh-7 cells transfected with sh-CPSF6-2 and shRNA-BTG2-1 was analyzed by glucose assay kit. E The lactate production of Huh-7 cells transfected with sh-CPSF6-2 and shRNA-BTG2-1 was analyzed by lactate assay kit. F HK-2 expression in Huh-7 cells transfected with sh-CPSF6-2 and shRNA-BTG2-1 was determined by Western blot analysis. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001 vs. Control group. ###P < 0.001 vs. sh-NC group. $P < 0.05, $$P < 0.01 and $$$P < 0.001 vs. sh-CPSF6-2 group.
