a QRT-PCR analysis of UFC1 knockdown efficiency in A549 cells. b Cell counting assays for sh-Ctrl and sh-UFC1 transfected A549 cells. c Colony formation assays for sh-Ctrl and sh-UFC1 transfected A549 cells. d The percentage of apoptotic cells in sh-Ctrl and sh-UFC1 groups was detected by flow cytometry after Annexin V/PI staining. e Flow cytometric analysis of cell cycle distribution in sh-Ctrl and sh-UFC1 transfected A549 cells. f, g QRT-PCR (f) and western blot (g) analysis of cyclin D1, Bcl-2 and Bax expression in sh-Ctrl and sh-UFC1 transfected A549 cells. h Transwell migration and matrigel invasion assays for sh-Ctrl and sh-UFC1 transfected A549 cells. i QRT-PCR analysis of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, vimentin, slug, snail, and twist expression in sh-Ctrl and sh-UFC1 transfected A549 cells. j Western blot analysis of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, vimentin, twist, slug, snail, β-catenin, and c-Myc expression in sh-Ctrl and sh-UFC1 transfected A549 cells. The experiments were repeated for three times. Scale bar: 100 μm. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
