Figure 4From: Long noncoding RNA PVT1 indicates a poor prognosis of gastric cancer and promotes cell proliferation through epigenetically regulating p15 and p16Subcellular fractionation location of PVT1, and PVT1 could bind to EZH2. (A) After nuclear and cytosolic separation, RNA was extracted from the nuclear and the cytoplasmic fraction of SGC-7901 and BGC-823 cells and PVT1 expression was measured by qRT-PCR. GAPDH was used as a cytosol marker and U6 was used as a nucleus marker. (B) RIP experiments were performed in SGC-7901 and BGC-823 cells and the coprecipitated RNA were subjected to qRT-PCR for PVT1. HOTAIR was used as a positive control. The fold enrichment of PVT1 in EZH2 RIP is relative to its matching IgG control RIP. *, P < 0.05, **, P < 0.01.Back to article page
