Fig. 6: The restorative effect of SOCS2 silence in miR-196b-mediated HCC progression.

SMMC-7721 and HepG2 cells were transfected with anti-miR-NC, anti-miR-196b, or along with si-NC or si-SOCS2. The SOCS2 protein abundance a, cell proliferation b, glucose consumption c, lactate production d, and apoptosis e, f were analyzed in the two transfected cells by western blot, the MTT assay, the commercial kit, or flow cytometry, respectively. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
