Effect of siRNA-silencing of SALL2 gene on growth, migration and invasion of human ovarian carcinoma A2780 cells

Abstract Background The role of Spalt-like gene-2 (SALL2) in tumorigenesis remains incompletely elucidated.This study investigated the effects of Grip Ring SALL2 on human ovarian carcinoma (OC) A2780 cells and the probable mechanism.Methods Expression of SALL2 in human OC cell lines were detected by reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and Western bl
