Figure Lengend Snippet: In vivo and in vitro functional assay involving VIRMA . (A) Western blot analysis of VIRMA expression efficiency in siRNA knockdown KYSE410 and OE19 cells. (B) The CCK-8 assay was used to detect the viability of KYSE410 and OE19 cells transfected with VIRMA siRNAs or control. (C) Western blot analysis of VIRMA expression efficiency in shRNA knockdown KYSE410 and OE19 cells. (D) The Transwell assay was performed to detect the migration and invasion ability of KYSE410 and OE19 cells transfected with VIRMA siRNAs or control. Stained with 3% crystal violet in methanol. (E) Subcutaneous tumorigenicity assay of KYSE410 and OE19 cells transfected with VIRMA shRNA or control, the right side is the H&E staining of the tumor. Data are representative of at least three independent experiments. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. ****, P<0.0001. NC, negative control; H&E, hematoxylin and eosin; SEM, standard error of the mean.

Article Snippet: Each day, one 96-well plate was used, and 10 µL/well of Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) (Bioss, Beijing, China) solution was added.
