LINC00511 promotes gastric cancer cell growth by acting as a ceRNA

Figure 5 LINC00511 promotes gastric cancer cell growth by regulating PDK4 expression. A: Quantitative real-time PCR was employed to explore the mRNA levels of PDK4 in GC cells transfected with pcDNA3.1/PDK4; B, C: Cell proliferation ability was examined by CCK-8 and colony formation assays; D: WB assay was used to examine the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 and total caspase-3. ^aP < 0.05, ^bP < 0.01.
