CircCHST15 regulated PD-L1 expression in lung cancer cells and it was positively correlated to the expression of PD-L1. (A, B) The transfection efficiencies of CircCHST15 and shCircCHST15 in H1395 (A) and A549 (B) cells were determined by RT-qPCR, GAPDH was used as an internal control. (C, F) The gene expressions of PD-L1 in H1395 (C) and A549 (F) cells were determined by RT-qPCR, GAPDH was used as an internal control. (D, E, G, H) The protein expression of PD-L1 in H1395 (D, E) and A549 (G, H) cells was determined by western blot, GAPDH was used as an internal control. (I) The expression of PD-L1 in Ant and lung cancer tissues was determined by RT-qPCR, GAPDH was used as an internal control. (J, K) The correlation between the expressions of CircCHST15 and PD-L1 in Ant (J) and lung cancer tissues (K) was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. (*** P < 0.001, vs. NC; ^^^ P < 0.001, vs. shNC). (Ant, adjacent normal tissues).
