Figure 4: CTMP promotes HNSCC proliferation.

To evaluate the effect of CTMP on cell proliferation, a WST-1 assay was performed after transient transfection of CTMP-specific cDNA (A,C) or small interfering RNA (siRNA) (B,D). CTMP protein levels after transfection were examined through Western blot analysis. Each figure is representative of three independent experiments. Scr, scrambled; *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001.
