LINC-PINT inhibited epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in GBM cell lines. (A) GO analysis for the potential biological functions of LINC-PINT in GBM. (B) The gene correlation analysis from GEPIA database predicted negative correlation of LINC-PINT with EMT markers N-cadherin, Vimentin, and Slug in GBM. (B) Western blot assay for EMT related markers N-cadherin, Vimentin, and Slug detected in U87 and LN229 cells under different transfection. (C) Representative Vimentin (red) staining in transfected LN229 cells was observed by the fluorescence microscope. Nuclei are counterstained by DAPI (blue). **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
