CKS1B promotes the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma by activating JAK/STAT3 signal pathway.

ABSTRACT: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignancy of considerable concern due to its continuous increase in morbidity and mortality. This study attempts to identify the molecules that play a key role in the progression of HCC, explore its potential mechanism, and provide more target choices for targeted therapy. Using overexpression plasmid and shRNA, CKS1B was respectively overexpressed and knocked down to explore its biological function roles in HCC progression and development. MTT and colony formation assays showed that knockdown of CKS1B inhibited the survival and proliferation of HCC cell lines (Hep3B and Huh7). The flow cytometry and western blot analysis showed that knockdown of CKS1B significantly induced the apoptosis of Hep3B and Huh7 cells. The wound healing and transwell invasion
