Therapeutic role of DNMT3b knockdown in vivo. (A) Cell viability was analyzed, and apoptosis was (B) quantified following (C) flow cytometry analysis in PANC-1 cells transfected with si-DNMT3b or NC. (D) Hoechst staining was performed to confirm the results of the viability and apoptosis assays. PANC-1 cells were used to establish a tumor model and the role of DNMT3b knockdown was determined in vivo through (E) observation and (F) measurement of tumor volume. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs. NC. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. DNMT3b, DNA methyltransferase 3b; CCK-8, Cell Counting Kit-8; OD, optical density; siRNA, small interfering RNA; NC, negative control; FITC, fluorescein isothiocyanate; PI, propidium iodide.
