MCM3AP‐AS1 knockdown suppressed CRC cell migration and invasionin vitro and metastasis in vivo. (A, B) The effects of MCM3AP‐AS1 knockdown on the migration and invasion of HCT‐8 (A) and LoVo (B) cells were detected by transwell assays. (C) MCM3AP‐AS1 knockdown inhibited CRC metastasis. LoVo cells with MCM3AP‐AS1 knockdown were injected to the tail veins of nude mice (n = 5) to evaluated the function of MCM3AP‐AS1 in a lung metastasis mouse model. Representative HE‐stained sections of lung tissues are showed in this panel. The number of lung nodules were quantified after dissection. **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
