FERMT3 modulates cell migration and cell cycle upon CSE stimulation. a After transfection with si-NC, si-FERMT3, ferMT3 vector, or control vector for 24 h, the migration ability of A549 cells was detected by wound healing experiment. **P < 0.01, compared with Si-NC; ^##P < 0.01, compared with control vector. b, c A549 cells were transfected with a control vector or FERMT3 vector then treated by 3% CSE for 24 h. b Transwell invasion assays of A549 cells (× 100 magnification). c Cell cycle of A549 cells assessed by flow cytometry. **P < 0.01, compared with control vector; ^##P < 0.01, compared with control vector + 3% CSE. n = 3 per group
