UCA1 promotes the proliferation of PC. SW1990 and PANC-1 cells were transfected with UCA1 scramble or UCA1 siRNA, respectively. (A) Relative expression of UCA1 in SW1990 and PANC-1 cells was detected through qRT-PCR (***p < 0.001 vs. UCA1 scramble). (B, C) Cell proliferation rates in SW1990 and PANC-1 cells were detected through MTT assay (*p < 0.05 vs. UCA1 scramble). (D) Cell proliferation of SW1990 and PANC-1 cells was exhibited by tumor sphere assay. (E) Flow cytometry was performed to determine the percentages of apoptosis in SW1990 and PANC-1 cells. (F) Histogram represents the statistical analysis of flow cytometry (***p < 0.001 vs. UCA1 scramble).
