Rescuing the protein level of LATS1 by altering the expression of YTHDF2 in breast cancer cells could help suppress tumorigenesis. a YTHDF2 deletion remarkably suppressed glycolysis progression in MCF-7 cells, *** p < 0.001. b Knocking out the expression of YTHDF2 significantly inhibited tumor growth in vivo, n = 7, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01. c The colony formation ability of MCF-7 cells was suppressed by knocking out the expression of YTHDF2 and reversed by inhibiting the expression of LATS1 at the same time. YTHDF2 overexpression led to the rapid proliferation of MCF-7 cells and such stimulation could be rescued by LATS1 knockdown, n = 3, ** p < 0.01. e YTHDF2 deletion raised the apoptosis level of MCF-7 cells, while LATS1 knockdown rescued this stimulation, n = 3, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001. f The suppressed invasion ability of MCF-7 cells affected by YTHDF2 knockout could be rescued by LATS1 knockdown, n = 3, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001
