Fig. 2: Impacts of LINC00284 on PTC cell proliferation in vitro.

A LINC00284 expression in TPC-1 and K-1 treated by si-LINC00284 or si-NC was detected by qRT-PCR. B CCK8 experiments were adopted to assess the viability of si-LINC00284 treated PTC cells. C Colony formation assays were used to examine the growth of PTC cells after transfection. D The proliferation ability of PTC cells transfected with si-LINC00284 was analyzed by EdU staining assays (scale bar: 100 μm). Values indicated mean ± standard deviation. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001.
