Fig. 4. TGFβ1 induces the expression of IL-6 family cytokines.

Fig. 4

A Schematic representation of the treatment of murine tumor organoids seeded as single cells with recombinant TGFβ1 and the timing of quantification of gene expression signatures. BE mRNA expression levels of IL-6 family cytokines Il6, Lif, and Il11 (B); IL-6 family cytokine receptors il6st (C); Il6r, Lifr, and Il11r (D), and the IL-6 cytokine family target gene, Socs3 (E), 3 days post treatment with TGFβ1. Each dot represents an individual organoid. Organoids are grouped into glandular (G) and solid (S) types. Data includes three biological replicates and is presented as log10 fold change relative to the vehicle (white) control (mean ± SEM). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001, paired t-test.
