LncPART1 inhibits proliferation of cervical squamous cells in vitro. A, Expression levels of lncPART1 in SiHa/lncPART1 cells (SiHa cells with stable overexpression of lncPART1). B, Cell proliferation curves (as detected by RTCA assay) of SiHa cells in the two groups. C, Colony formation assays of SiHa/Con and SiHa/lncPART1 cells. Quantification of colony formation number is also shown. D, Cell cycle distribution analyses of SiHa/Con and SiHa/lncPART1 cells. Quantification of colony formation number is also shown. E, Representative images of wound healing in SiHa/Con and SiHa/lncPART1 cells. Quantification of healing rate is also shown. F, Representative images of transwell migration (up) and Matrigel invasion assays (down) of SiHa/Con and SiHa/lncPART1 cells. Quantification of migrating cells is also shown. All the experiments were performed in triplicates. Error bars show SD; data are means ± SEM. n.s., not significant. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, based on the Student's t‐test
