The expressions of KISS-1 and matrix metalloproteinase-9 mRNA and protein in BGC-823 cells. A: The expression level of KISS-1 mRNA was distinctly higher and the expression level of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) mRNA was distinctly lower in pcDNA3.1-KISS-1 group than that in pcDNA3.1 group (P < 0.05) and control group (P < 0.05); B: The expression level of KISS-1 protein was distinctly higher and the expression level of MMP-9 protein was distinctly lower in pcDNA3.1-KISS-1 group than that in pcDNA3.1 group (P < 0.05) and control group (P < 0.05). Lane 1: Control group; Lane 2: pcDNA3.1 group; Lane 3: pcDNA3.1-KISS-1group; MMP-9: Matrix metalloproteinase-9; GAPDH: Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.
