Fig. 5From: ADAM-17 is a poor prognostic indicator for patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma and is regulated by FoxM1FoxM1 regulates ADAM-17 expression promoting TNFa expression and cleavage. a RBE cells were stably transfected with FoxM1 and protein levels of FoxM1, ADAM-17, and TNFa were detected in the whole cell lysates by Western blotting (upper) and TNFa was detected by ELISA in the supernatants (lower). b QBC 939 cells were stably transfected with FoxM1-shRNA and protein levels of FoxM1, ADAM-17, and TNFa were detected in the whole cell lysates by Western blotting (upper) and TNFa was detected by ELISA in the supernatants (lower). OE: overexpression. *P < 0.05; ***P < 0.001Back to article page
