Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 molecular mechanisms in gastric cancer progression

Figure 3 MALAT1 modulates acetylation in promoter region epidermal growth factor-like domain-containing protein 7 located in histone H3. A: Transfection of small interfering MALAT1 reduces acetylation on promoter region of EGFL7 gene (Epidermal growth factor-like domain-containing protein 7), decreasing metastasis, cell invasion and migration; B: Plasmid cloning DNA-MALAT1 transfection increases EGFL7 acetylation and protein expression, promoting migration, invasion, and metastasis of GC cells. EGFL7: Epidermal growth factor-like domain-containing protein 7; MALAT1: Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1; siMALAT1: Small interfering RNA MALAT1; pcDNA-MALAT1: Plasmid cloning DNA-MALAT1; siEGFL7: Small interfering RNA EGFL7.
