SLC16A1-AS1 is highly expressed in renal cancer cells. (A) Analysis from the TCGA database shows the expression of SLC16A1-AS1 in various malignant tumors. (B) A Kaplan–Meyer survival analysis shows patients with high expression of SLC16A1-AS1 had poorer overall survival than the patients with low expression. (C) Analysis from Starbase 3.0 shows the expression of SLC16A1-AS1 in RCC samples and normal tissues. (D) SLC16A1-AS1 expression in normal renal cell (HK-2) and 3 RCC cell lines (786-O, A498, and Caki-1). (E) Knockdown efficacy of 2 distinct si-SLC16A1-AS1 evaluated by qRT–PCR. *p<.05, **p<.01 compared with the NC group.
Abbreviations: RCC, renal cell carcinoma; qRT–PCR, quantitative reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction; NC, negative control.
