Migration and invasion capabilities of A172 and U251 cells that were infected by different viruses in the transwell experiment. (A, C) Cell migration phenomenon in all groups. (B, D) Cell invasion performance in all groups. (E, F) Migration and invasion numbers analysis of A172 cells in each group. Migration and invasion capabilities of A172 cells are enhanced by AQP8 overexpression and reduced by AQP8 knockdown. (G, H) Migration and invasion numbers analysis of U251 cells in each group. Migration and invasion capabilities of U251 cells were enhanced by AQP8 overexpression (O.E) and reduced by AQP8 knockdown (K.D) compared with control group (vs. control, *p < 0.05). AQP, aquaporin; NC, negative control; O.E, overexpressed; K.D, knockdown. All experiments were performed in triplicate
