To understand the effect of deregulated OGDHL, we examined the mRNA expression of this gene in different cervical cancer cell lines and selected two cell lines (HeLa and ME180) that adequately expressed endogeneous OGDHL and two cell lines (SiHa and CaSki) that minimally expressed endogeneous OGDHL at mRNA and protein level (Fig. 1A and B). This evidence concerns the gene OGDHL and cervical cancer.
