hnRNPA2B1 is upregulated in atherosclerotic plaques, and silencing hnRNPA2B1 inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis. (A-B) The expression of hnRNPA2B1 in different stages of atherosclerosis was analyzed by immunohistochemical staining. (C) The relative expression levels of hnRNPA2B1 in PBMC samples from CAD patients and controls were determined by RT‒PCR. (D-E) The CCK-8 assay revealed that silencing hnRNPA2B1 inhibited cell proliferation. (F-G) Transwell and wound healing assays suggested that cell migration was dramatically suppressed by silencing hnRNPA2B1 expression. (H) Flow cytometric analysis indicated that the proportion of apoptotic cells was notably elevated in the si-hnRNPA2B1 groups. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
