Effects of Loc554202 knockdown on colorectal cancer cell proliferation in vitro. a A MTT assay was performed to determine the proliferation of HCT116 and DLD1 cells following transfection with si-Loc554202 or si-NC. The data represent the means ± S.D. from three independent experiments. b Colony-forming growth assays were performed to determine the proliferation of HCT116 and DLD1 cells. The colonies were counted and captured. * P < 0.05 and ** P < 0.01
