Hepatitis B Virus X Protein-Induced RORγ Expression to Promote the Migration and Proliferation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Figure 4

HBx can upregulate the expression of RORγ. (a, b) The HepG2 cells were transfected with Myc-HBx plasmid in increased concentration, and western blotting was subjected to analyze the protein expression of RORγ. (c, d) HepG2 cells were transfected with HBx-overexpressing and vector plasmids, and the mRNA levels of RORγ were examined with RT-PCR. The Quantity One software was used for quantitative analysis. The data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD), n = 3. was considered statistically significant.
