Exosomal MiR-1290 Promotes Angiogenesis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma via Targeting SMEK1
Figure 5
SMEK1 inhibits the angiogenic ability of endothelial cells. (a, b) Two independent shRNAs for SMEK1 were stably transfected into HUVECs via infection of lentivirus. The mRNA (a) and protein (b) level of SMEK1 were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. (c, d, e) The tube formation assay (c), wound-healing assay (d), and Transwell assay (e) were performed in SMEK1-interfered HUVECs. ; .
