Figure 11 Effects of shRNA-tensin 4 on transforming growth factor-β1/Smad signaling pathway in HepG2 and PLC cells.
A: Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1/Smad signaling pathway-related protein expression in HepG2 cells, measured by western blotting; B and C: TGF-β1 + adeno-associated virus-shRNA1-TNS4 significantly downregulated expression of p-Smad2/Smad2 and p-Smad3/Smad3 in HepG2 cells; D: TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway-related protein expression in PLC cells, measured by western blotting; E and F: TGF-β1 + adeno-associated virus-shRNA1-TNS4 significantly downregulated expression of p-Smad2/Smad2 and p-Smad3/Smad3 in PLC cells. dP < 0.0001. TGF-β1: Transforming growth factor-β1; TNS4: Tensin 4; AAV8: Adeno-associated virus 8.
