From: Decreased expression of long noncoding RNA GAS5 indicates a poor prognosis and promotes cell proliferation in gastric cancer

Figure 4

Downregulation of endogenous GAS5 promotes gastric cancer cell proliferation. (A) MTT assay was performed to determine the proliferation of si-GAS5 transfected MGC803 cells. (B) Colony-forming growth assay was performed to determine the proliferation of si-GAS5 transfected MGC803 cells. (C, D) The effect of GAS5 on gastric cancer cells apoptosis. SGC7901 and BGC823 cells were transfected with pCDNA3.1-GAS5 vector (or empty vector), respectively. Hoechst staining assay for cell apoptosis; the percentage of Hoechst-positive nuclei per optical field (at least 50 fields) was counted. *P < 0.05.
