Expression analyses of PAK5 in HCC tissues and cancer cell lines. (A) The expression of PAK5 was evaluated in HCC tissue samples and normal tissue samples by immunohistochemical analysis. Three representative examples are shown. Scale bar=20 μm. (B) The relative abundance of PAK5 mRNA was evaluated in HCC tissues and matched paraneoplastic tissues by qPCR (n=30). The data are plotted as the log2 of the ratio of PAK5 mRNA. (C) PAK5 protein expression was evaluated in human tumor cell lines, including HCC cell lines (SMMC7721, HepG2, Hep3B, SK-HEP-1, and Huh-7), and a liver cell line (HL-7702) by Western blotting.
