    a Kaplan–Meier estimates of the survival of HCC patients depending on the expression of HK1 , <t>HK2</t> , HK3 and GCK ( HK4 ) genes in tumor biopsies ( n = 365; diploid samples; TCGA expression data retrieved from cBioPortal; Firehose Legacy) , . Duplicate analyses from the same patient were removed as well as patients who died when biopsied (overall survival=0 months or not specified). Optimal stratification based on highest and lowest gene expression values was determined using Protein Atlas database . b Same as above but patients were stratified based on the GCK/HK2 gene expression ratio. The stratification showing the lowest p value when comparing subgroups of patients with the highest to the lowest GCK/HK2 expression ratio is displayed. Patient TCGA-DD-AAE9 exhibiting undetectable levels of GCK and HK2 was removed from this analysis as the GCK/HK2 ratio could not be calculated. c Correlations between patient survival, GCK expression and HK2 expression. Spearman’s rank correlation test on the subset 130 patients for whom the period between diagnosis and death is precisely known (uncensored data).

(a-b) The effects of si-PVT1, miR-143 inhibitor and si-PVT1 + miR-143 inhibitor on mRNA and protein levels of HK2 in GBC-SD cells. (c-d) The effects of miR-143 mimics, pcDNA-PVT1, and miR-143 mimics+pcDNA-PVT1 on mRNA and protein levels of HK2 in GBC-SD cells. (e-f) Pearson correlation between PVT1 and HK2 mRNA transcript level was measured in GSE76633 and 20 pairs of GBC tissues, respectively. (g-h) Expression level of HK2 was higher in GBC tissues than in normal tissues by IHC staining. Scale bar, 100 μm. (i) Representative HK2 staining patterns. Scale bar, 100 μm. (j-k) High PVT1 expression correlated with advanced TNM stage, metastasis and poor overall survival. (l) The association between PVT1 and HK2 expression. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. Error bars indicate mean ± SD

    Article Snippet: The slides were incubated with rabbit anti-human polyclonal antibodies against HK2 (1:200 dilution, Proteintech) and Ki-67 (1:500 dilution, Signalway Antibody) at 4 °C overnight and then probed with biotinylated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (Vector Laboratories, CA, USA) and high-sensitivity streptavidin–HRP conjugate.

    HK2 promotes cell proliferation, invasion and migration in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. (a) The protein levels of HK2 in GBC cells after knockdown by si-HK2. (b-e) Knockdown of HK2 significantly decreased cell proliferation compared with si-ctrl cells by proliferation assays. (f) Formation of spheres from GBC cells transfected with si-HK2 accessed by three-dimensional cell culture (magnification, × 200, scale bar, 50 μm). (g-i) HK2 suppression impaired GBC cell invasion and migration, as measured by transwell assay (magnification, × 100). Scale bar, 100 μm and wound healing assays. (j-k) Glucose consumption and lactate production were significantly decreased after HK2 knockdown. (l-m) Tumor volume and weight in the lenti-sh-HK2 group were significantly lower than those in the lenti-sh-NC group. (n) Images of tumor formation were performed by a live imaging system detecting the luciferase signal. (o) The luciferase activity in the lenti-sh-HK2 group was lower than that in the lenti-sh-NC group. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. Error bars indicate mean ± SD
