The A498 and 786‐O cells (pretreated with si‐NC or si‐RCC1) and the 769‐P cells (transfected with OE‐NC/OE‐RCC1) were seeded in 96‐well plates, adding 2000 cells per well. Next, on appointed Day 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, the cells were mixed with 10% CCK‐8 reagent (MCE) and incubated for 1 hour in the presence of 5% CO
2, at 37°C. Then, the value of OD 450 nm, indicating the relative cell viability, was measured using a Bio‐rad
microplate reader.
For the colony formation assay, 1000 cells were plated into each well of 6‐well plates. After cultivation for 7–10 days, each well was washed using
PBS (Procell) and stained with 4% paraformaldehyde and 0.5%
crystal violet (Beyotime).
The EDU assay was also performed to detect cell viability using the
Alexa Fluor 594 BeyoClick™ EdU Cell Proliferation Kit (Beyotime) according to the manufacturer's protocol.
