RIZ1 overexpression induced cell cycle arrest at the G2-M phase and apoptosis of cervical cancer cells. HeLa cells and SiHa cells were transfected with plasmid pcDNA3.1-RIZ1-AE or the empty vector pcDNA3.1 for 48 h. (A) Cell cycle distribution was assessed with PI staining followed by flow cytometry. (B) Percentage of cells at different phases, (C) Cell apoptosis was assessed with Annvin V staining followed by flow cytometry, (D) Percentage of Annexin V positive cells. The data are the mean ± SD of one representative experiment. Similar results were obtained in three independent experiments.
