Expression of p-Nrf2 in C-HCC samples and in cultured hepatoma cell lines. a Immunohistochemical analysis of the expression of p-Nrf2, and hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining in C-HCC specimens (#1 and #2) and a non-HCC specimen without either HCV or HBV infection. Bars, 50 μm. b Immunofluorescent analysis of the p-Nrf2 and the HCV core protein with nuclear staining (DAPI), and their merged images in the cell lines. c Immunoblot analysis of the Nrf2 protein in the cultured hepatoma cell lines after knockdown with siRNA against Nrf2 or control RNA. Beta-actin was used for validation of sample loading
