Inhibitory effect of TRIM3 on the growth of HepG2 and Bel-7402 cells. a, b Cell proliferation assay results show that TRIM3 overexpression suppressed the proliferation of HepG2 (a) and Bel-7402 (b) cells. OD, optical density. c, d Top representative images of decreased colony formation of HepG2/TRIM3 and Bel-7402/TRIM3 cells in a monolayer culture. Bottom colony-forming efficiencies were calculated after 12-day conventional culture. Measurements were carried out in triplicate, and experiments were repeated three times. Data are presented as mean ± SD. P values were calculated using Student’s t test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001, versus cells transfected with LV-NC
