The role of circ-SCMH1 in DDP resistance of OSCC cells in vitro. A, B MTT assay measured cell viability of SCC-15, SCC-15/DDP, CAL-27, and CAL-27/DDP cells. C The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of DDP was determined in the dose response curves. D–I SCC-15/DDP and CAL-27/DDP cells were transfected with siRNA against circ-SCMH1 (si-circ-SCMH1) or negative control (si-NC) for 48 h, comparing to control cells (without transfection). D RT-qPCR detected circ-SCMH1 level with normalization to GAPDH. E MTT assay determined IC50 of DDP. F Colony formation assay measured number of colonies. G Flow cytometry (FCM) analyzed apoptosis rate. H, I Transwell assays measured numbers of migrated cells and invaded cells. J, K Western blotting examined relative protein expression of Bax and cleaved-caspase-3 with correction with GAPDH. ***P < 0.001 and ****P < 0.0001 from three separate assays
