HOX transcript antisense intergenic RNA represses E-cadherin expression by binding to EZH2 in gastric cancer

Figure 2 HOTAIR knockdown decreases migration and invasion of gastric cancerGC cells. A and B: HOTAIR knockdown samples exhibited slower scratch closure rate by the wound-healing detection in BGC-823 cells; C and B: Wound-healing assay in SGC-7901 cells with HOTAIR silencing; E and F: Representative pictures of cell migration across the membrane in BGC-823 and SGC-7901 cells with HOTAIR reduction; G and H: Representative pictures of Transwell invasion assay in BGC-823 and SGC-7901 cells with HOTAIR depletion. (^aP < 0.05, ^bP < 0.01). GC: Gastric cancer; HOTAIR: HOX transcript antisense intergenic RNA.
