Fig. 4: KLHL17 promotes the proliferation of non-small cell lung cancer cells.

A MTS assay showing effects of KLHL17 overexpression with KLHL17-Flag plasmid (KLHL17) or KLHL17 knockdown with small interfering RNA (siKLHL17) on the proliferation ability of A549, H1299 and SK cells. *P < 0.05 vs negative control (NC), #P < 0.05 vs Empty. B Colony formation assay showing the effects of KLHL17 overexpression or KLHL17 knockdown on colony formation ability of A549, H1299 and SK cells. Quantitative analysis of the numbers of colonies is shown on the right. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 vs negative control (NC) or Empty.
