Figure 2. Effect of HBx on the proliferation.

Figure 2

HBx protein was over-expressed in both Huh 7 and Hep G2 cells (A). HBx was over-expressed in hepatoma cells and the empty vector was used as transfection control. Lane 1, Control; lane 2, Empty vector; and lane 3, HBx transfected cells. Cell proliferation assay was performed using WST1 reagent in Huh 7 (B) and Hep G2 (C) cells. After 48 hours of transfection the proliferation assay was performed. (n = 3; *p<0.01).
