To exclude the possibility that the effect of Snail on migration and invasion of RhoGDI2-overexpressing gastric cancer cells was attributable to different proliferation rates, we compared growth rates of Snail-depleted SNU-484(GDI2-5) cells (shSnail-1 and shSnail-2) with those of control (shCon) cells. Here, ARHGDIB is linked to gastric cancer.
