Tcf7l1 and LCN2 expression in cells in vitro. Control HFKs (transfected with blank vector), E6/E7 gene-transfected HFKs, and SCC-13 cells were cultured in vitro. (a) Immunofluorescence showed the strongest Tcf7l1 (green) and LCN2 (red) staining in SCC-13 cells, followed by E6/E7-transfected and control HFKs in order. (b and c) Flow cytometry confirmed more Tcf7l1 and LCN2 expression in SCC-13 cells and E6/E7-transfected HFKs when compared with control HFKs. MFI, mean fluorescent intensity. (d and e) Western blot revealed the highest levels of Tcf7l1 (d) and LCN2 (e) in SCC-13 cells. Data show mean±S.E.M. of triplicate cultures (n=3). Statistical differences were tested with one-way ANOVA followed by a two-tailed t-test. Representative images are shown. Scale bar=5 μm. *P<0.05; **P<0.01.
