Figure Lengend Snippet: The results of the transwell assay regarding metastasis. Reduced expression of SMOX inhibits the migration and invasion abilities of CRC cells. The result of the chamber migration assay and invasion assay. Cells were visualized in violet color. ( A ) Migration of the siRNA treatment group was reduced in comparison with the control group. The images of the cells were on the bottom membrane (Original magnification ×40). ( B ) siRNA-treated cells were less numerous than control cells. The images of the cells were on the bottom membrane (Original magnification ×40). ( C ) The graph indicates the percentage of cells and the results of the chamber migration assay (HCT116, 35%; HT29, 46%; SW480, 34%; and SW620, 22%) (* p < 0.05, *** p < 0.001). ( D ) The graph expresses the percentage of cells in the chamber invasion assay (HCT116, 31%; HT29, 41%; SW480, 35%; and SW620, 18%) (** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001).
Article Snippet: The anti-human primary rabbit polyclonal SMOX antibody (Proteintech, Rosemont, IL, USA) was diluted at 1:500, and the membrane was subsequently incubated with the antibody in BSA at 4 °C overnight.
