The effect of VCP on HCC cell proliferation and apoptosis in vitro. A The efficacy verification of VCP-siRNA and exogenous VCP transfection in HCC cells. B, C CCK8 assay was performed to measure the cell viability. D, E The EdU experiment was also used to detect cell ability of proliferation induced by different expressed levels of VCP. F, G The apoptotic level of HCC cells was determined by flow cytometry. All *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001
