Fig 7 The mRNA level of methyltransferase in glioma cells which were treated with Zeocin A: RT-qPCR tested the mRNA level of METTL14 in D54 glioma cells which were treated with different concentrations of Zeocin; B: RT-qPCR tested the mRNA level of METTL14 in U251 glioma cells which were treated with different concentrations of Zeocin; HSV-1 was positive control, and all P-values were compared with 0 μg/mL group.⁽¹⁾P < 0.01; ns: Not significant.
