Fig. 1. Functional effects of PIAS1 expression on HeLa cells.

Fig. 1

a HeLa cells were transfected with Myc-PIAS1 (PIAS1-OE) or Empty vector (NC-vector) for 48 h. PIAS1 overexpression efficiency was determined by western blotting. Actin was used as a loading control. b PIAS1 KO HeLa cells were generated by CRISPR/Cas9. PIAS1 KO was determined by western blotting. Actin was used as a loading control. c PIAS1 overexpression in HeLa cells significantly promotes cell growth, n = 3 biologically independent samples. d PIAS1 KO HeLa cells (PIAS1-sgRNA) showed impeded cell growth compared with the negative control cells (NC-sgRNA), n = 3 biologically independent samples. e PIAS1 overexpression increased cell migration as determined by a wound-healing assay. Scale bar: 200 μm, n = 5 biologically independent samples. f PIAS1 KO cells displayed decreased cell migration compared with the sgRNA-negative control cells, as determined by a wound-healing assay. Scale bar: 200 μm, n = 5 biologically independent samples. Data represent the mean ± SD, error bars represent SD, **p < 0.01, Student’s t-test. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
