Stable knockdown of heparanase expression in gastric cancer cells in vitro

Figure 2 Stable knockdown of heparanase does not affect the in vitro cell proliferation of gastric cancer cells. A: MTT colorimetric assay indicated that stable transfection of shRNA did not affect the proliferation of SGC-7901 cells, when compared to the parental cells and mock group; B: In the colony formation assay, stable transfection of heparanase-specific shRNA, scrambled shRNA or vector (mock), did not influence the cell proliferation of cultured SGC-7901 cells. Experiments were performed in triplicate with essentially identical results.
