LINC00511 accelerated the course of GC via declining miR-625-5p expression a, b CCK8 and colony formation assay were performed to estimate the cell proliferation in cells transfected with miR-625-5p mimics. c, d Flow cytometry analysis and TUNEL assays were conducted to measure apoptosis in cells transfected with miR-625-5p mimics. e Western blot assays were used to measure the relevant protein of apoptosis. f, g The effect of miR-625-5p inhibitor and sh-LINC00511#1 were examined by CCK8 and colony formation assay on cell proliferation. h, i The influence of miR-625-5p inhibitor and sh-LINC00511#1 were appraised on the rate of apoptosis in flow cytometry analysis and TUNEL assay. j Relevant proteins of apoptosis were tested in western blot in cells transfected with miR-625-5p inhibitor and sh-LINC00511#1. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
