Stable knockdown of homeobox B9 (HOXB9) inhibited colon cancer cell migration and invasion in LoVo and SW620 cells. (A) qRT-PCR analysis of HOXB9 mRNA expression in HOXB9-knockdown colon cancer cells (*, P<0.05); (B) Western blotting analysis of HOXB9 protein expression in HOXB9-knockdown colon cancer cells; (C) Wound-healing assay. Wound closure was delayed in HOXB9-knockdown cells compared to MOCK control and shNC at both the 24- and 36-h time points; (D) Representative images of the transwell invasion assays of LoVo and SW620 cells after knockdown of HOXB9 (*, P<0.05); (E) Representative images of the transwell migration assays of LoVo and SW620 cells after knockdown of HOXB9 (*, P<0.05).
