Knockdown of LTBP2 inhibits the growth of thyroid carcinoma in vivo. FTC133 cells (1 × 10⁶ cells/0.1 ml) transduced with sh-LTBP2 or mock were injected subcutaneously into the flank of nude mice. (A) The volume of tumors was monitored every 5 days. (B) The mice were sacrificed 25 days after inoculation, and tumors were excised, measured, and weighed. Experiments were performed in triplicate. *p < 0.05 versus the mock group.
