MORC2 modulates proliferation of liver cancer cells in vitro. (A) Knockdown of MORC2 in HepG2 (left), Bel-7402 (middle) and LM3 (right) cell lines by siRNA targeting MORC2 was confirmed by western blot analysis; β-actin was used as a loading control. (B) Effect of MORC2-knockdown on the proliferation of HepG2 (left), Bel-7402 (middle) and LM3 (right) cells was determined using a cell counting kit-8 assay. (C) Effect of MORC2-knockdown on colony numbers was determined using a colony formation assay in HepG2 (left), Bel-7402 (middle) and LM3 (right) cells. *P<0.05; **P<0.01; ***P<0.001. MORC2, microrchidia 2; siRNA, small interfering RNA; CON, control; KD, knockdown; NC, negative control.
