Figure 2. The regulatory effects of DCTPP1 and QPRT on BC cell growth and apoptosis. DCTPP1 and QPRT mRNA (A) and protein (B) levels in MCF-7 and T47D cells were changed after transfection with shRNA-DCTPP1, shRNA-QPRT, and DCTPP1 and QPRT expression vectors. (C) Down-regulation of DCTPP1 or QPRT was associated with reduced viability in both MCF-7 and T47D cells and increased DCTPP1 or QPRT was associated with increased cell viability. (D) The apoptosis rate of MCF-7 and T47D cells increased after knocking down either DCTPP1 or QPRT. DCTPP1 overexpression decreased the apoptosis rate of MCF-7 and T47D cells, and QPRT overexpression only marginally decreased MCF-7 and T47D apoptosis. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001 vs. control group.
