CPT1A enhances BC proliferation both in vivo and in vitro. (A) CPT1A knockdown and overexpression BC cell lines were constructed, and the transfection efficiency was verified by Western blot. (B-D) BC cells proliferation ability was tested by CCK8 (B), colony formation (C) and EdU assays (D). Scale bar: 50 μm. (E) The ratio of G2/M%+S% in different groups was quantified by flow cytometry. Quantification of the flow cytometry result (n = 3). (F) Representative fluorescence imaging and morphology of the nude mice xenograft. The down panel represents the analysis of tumor volume and weight. Size of each grid: 1 mm × 1 mm. (n = 5). (G) IHC staining showed Ki67 expression in tumor specimens from xenografts. Scale bar: 50 μm. *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01
