In-vivo Model For the subcutaneous transplantation model, sh-control, sh-FTO, NC-OE and ERBB2-OE KYSE150 stable cells (6 × 106 per mouse, n = 3 for each group) were diluted to 100 uL PBS + 100 uL Matrigel (BD) and subcutaneously injected to two points in the middle and upper groin of immunodeficient mice to study tumor growth. When the tumor volume reached ~ 1000 mm3 in each group, the nude mice were killed, and the tumors were excised and weighed for histology and further study. The tumor volume was calculated by the formula V = 1/2 × large diameter × (small diameter)2. For a model of lung metastasis in vivo, nude mice were injected with 100 uL WT (wide type), sh-FTO, ERBB2-OE and sh-FTO+ERBB2-OE KYSE150 stable cells (1 × 106 cells per mouse, n = 3 for each group) through tail vein, respectively.
