lncRNA DLEU2 Accelerates Oral Cancer Progression via miR-30a-5p/RAP1B Axis to Regulate p38 MAPK Signaling Pathway

Figure 1

DLEU2 is a new potential target that promotes oral cancer development. (a) Hierarchical clustering heat map shows differentially expressed lncRNA including DLEU2 between the oral cancer and control groups. (b) Relative expression of DLEU2 in RWPE-2 and four oral cancer cell lines (C4-2, 22RV1, Tca8113, and CAL-27). (c) RT-qPCR analysis of the inhibition efficiency of 3 si-DLEU2 in Tca8113 and CAL-27 cells. (d, e) CCK8 analysis of the effect of si-DLEU2 on the proliferation rate of Tca8113 (d) and CAL-27 (e) cells. (f, g) Transwell analysis of the effects of si-DLEU2 on migration and invasion of Tca8113 (f) and CAL-27 (g) cells. (h) RT-qPCR analysis of DLEU2 localization in Tca8113 and CAL-27 cells. .
