The effects of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) silencing in proliferation of LCDE cells were evaluated by proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) protein expression (A), Bax protein expression (B), and secretin-stimulated cAMP levels (C). Knockdown of FSH blocked the stimulatory effects of FSH on (A) PCNA protein expression, and (C) secretin-stimulated cAMP levels, and increased cholangiocyte apoptosis as evaluated by blots for Bax protein expression (B). Data are expressed as mean ± SD of 5 experiments. *P < 0.05 vs. the corresponding basal value.
