Figure 3.

mRNA expression levels of ADAMTS1 in gastric cell lines before and after treatment with 5-Aza-dC. (A) mRNA expression levels of ADAMTS1 in the GES-1 normal gastric cell line and five gastric cancer cell lines were analyzed using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis. (B) Relative mRNA expression levels of ADAMTS1 in the GES-1 normal gastric cell line and five gastric cancer cell lines (Mann-Whitney U test; ***P<0.001, vs. before treatment). Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. ADAMTS1, A disintegrin and metallopeptidase with thrombospondin motif type 1; 5-Aza-dC, 5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine.
