FOXS1 regulates gastric cancer cell proliferation and the ability of colony formation. (A) The knockdown effect of siRNA targeting at five sites (137, 212, 275, 641 and 1040) of FOXS1 mRNA at mRNA levels were detected by RT-PCR. (B) The knockdown effect of siRNA targeting at two sites (137 and 641) of FOXS1 mRNA at protein levels were detected by WB. (C) The effect of FOXS1 knockdown by transfection with siRNA-137 or siRNA-641 targeting FOXS1 on cell viability was determined by Cell Proliferation Assay kits. (D) The effect of FOXS1 knockdown by transfection with siRNA-137 targeting FOXS1 on cell colony formation was analyzed by Crystal violet staining, and quantitative analysis of cell colony numbers was showed in the right panel. (E) The effect of FOXS1 knockdown on cell cycle distribution. (F,G) Overexpression effect of FOXS1 at mRNA levels was confirmed by RT-PCR and at protein levels was confirmed by WB. (H) Effect of FOXS1 overexpression on cell viability were detected by Cell Proliferation Assay kits. (I) The effect of FOXS1 overexpression on cell colony formation was analyzed by Crystal violet staining, and quantitative analysis of cell colony numbers was showed in the right panel. (J) The effect of FOXS1 overexpression on cell cycle distribution.
