GrnA deficiency decreases the expression of MET-related genes. Transcriptional expression levels of MET signaling-related genes (met, mmp2, mif, ybx1, ctnnb1, sub1, rac1, rps6kb1, fn1, and cdh2) (A) and other genes involved in liver growth (B) were examined using quantitative RT-PCR in 72-hpf controls and grnA morphants. The expression level of ef1a served as an internal control. The experiment was performed in triplicate; error bars indicate S.D. **, p < 0.01, t test.
