OTUD4 inhibits tumor cell proliferation and promotes tumor cell apoptosis. (A) Construction of cell lines with overexpression of OTUD4 in breast cancer, liver cancer and lung cancer cells. Representative Real Time PCR and Western blot analysis shows the results of OTUD4 overexpression in MDA-MB-231, ZR-75-30, HepG2, Huh7, A549 and H460 cancer cells. (B) Overexpression of OTUD4 inhibits the proliferation of breast cancer, liver cancer and lung cancer cells. The MTT assay indicates that the growth rates decreased in OTUD4-transduced cancer cells. *P< 0.01. (C) Overexpression of OTUD4 promotes apoptosis of breast cancer, liver cancer and lung cancer cells. GSEA plot showing that OTUD4 expression is positively correlated with Genes mediating programmed cell death (apoptosis) by activation of caspases signature (HALLMARK_APOPTOSIS) in published breast cancer patient gene expression profiles (NCBI/GEO/GSE42568, n=121), liver cancer patient gene expression profiles (NCBI/GEO/GSE26566, n=169) and lung cancer patient gene expression profiles (NCBI/GEO/GSE3141, n=111).
