Knockdown of BZW2 inhibits osteosarcoma cell growth in vitro. (A-D) Levels of mRNA and protein expression were validated after si-BZW2 transfection in MNNG/HOS and U2OS cells by qRT-PCR and western blotting, respectively. (E and F) Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assays were performed after siRNA transfection. (G-J) Colony formation assays were performed using BZW2-silenced osteosarcoma cells and control cells. Data are representative of results from three independent experiments’ *P<0.05.
