A RT-qPCR demonstrated circPDCD11 expression as measured in TNBC cell lines (BT549, MDA-MB-468, and MDA-MB-231) and human normal breast cells (MCF10A). B Lentivirus-mediated small-hairpin RNA (shRNA) and plasmid transfection were performed to effectively downregulate (MDA-MB-468) or upregulate (BT549) the endogenous expression of circPDCD11. C Glucose uptake was assessed using the Glucose Uptake Colorimetric Assay Kit. D Lactate-production analysis was quantified using a Lactate Colorimetric Assay Kit. E ATP quantity was quantified using the CellTiter-Glo Luminescent Cell Viability Assay Kit. F The extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) was quantified using a Bioscience XF96 Extracellular Flux Analyzer. The data are presented as the mean ± SD. Asterisks indicate significant differences (**p < 0.01, *p < 0.05).
