Fig. 3From: Elevated expression of HIGD1A drives hepatocellular carcinoma progression by regulating polyamine metabolism through c-Myc–ODC1 nexusHIGD1A knockdown inhibits the migration and invasion of HCC cells. A Cell migration ability of L02, HepG2, Huh7, and MHCC97H cells infected with shCtrl or shHIGD1A lentivirus was analyzed by transwell assay. Representative images of the transwell assay (left) and quantitative data of migrated cells (right) are shown. B Cell invasion ability of L02, HepG2, Huh7, and MHCC97H cells infected with shCtrl or shHIGD1A lentivirus as analyzed by transwell assay. Representative images of the transwell assay (left) and quantitative data of migrated cells (right) are shown. C Expression of EMT markers E-cadherin and N-cadherin in L02, HepG2, Huh7, and MHCC97H cells infected with shCtrl or shHIGD1A lentivirus as examined by western blotting. Results shown are mean ± SEM. *P <0.05, **P <0.01, ***P <0.001; ns, not significant. Scale bar, 100µmBack to article page
