GAS6-AS1 enhances proliferation of leukemia cells by inducing G1-S cell cycle transition and reducing apoptosis. A, B, C The bar chart represented the percentage of U937, HL-60 and Kasumi-1 cells in G0/G1, S or G2/M phase, following transfection-mediated GAS6-AS1 knockdown or overexpression. D, E Flow cytometry detecting the apoptotic rates of U937, HL-60 and Kasumi-1 cells after GAS6-AS1 knockdown or overexpression. LR, early apoptotic cells; UR, terminal apoptotic cells. Data were depicted as mean ± s.e.m., *P < 0.05
