Regulatory effects of HOTAIR on cell migration and progression of CSCC cells. a, b Transwell assay shows the migration of A431 transfected with HOTAIR siRNAs and SCL-1 transfected with HOTAIR OE plasmids. Images are harvested under a light microscope (×200). c, d Wound healing assay shows the migration of A431 transfected with HOTAIR siRNAs and SCL-1 transfected with HOTAIR OE plasmids. e Transfection with HOTAIR siRNAs in A431 promotes the expression of E-cadherin and inhibited the expressions of N-cadherin, Twist, Snail1 and ZEB1. Transfection with HOTAIR OE plasmids in SCL-1 represses the expression of E-cadherin and promotes N-cadherin and Twist expressions. Data are presented as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05; siRNA NC, siRNA negative control group; vector, overexpression plasmid vector negative control group
