Expression of TGR5 and FXR in ampullary adenocarcinoma. Sample pairs consisting of ampullary adenocarcinoma (T) and its corresponding normal duodenum (N) were collected. (A) Eight sample pairs were assessed by western blotting of TGR5 and FXR proteins with GAPDH serving as a loading control. The fold-change of TGR5/GAPDH or FXR/GAPDH is indicated below the band. (B) A total of 15 sample pairs were assessed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR, with β-actin serving as a loading control. The fold-change of TGR5/β-actin or FXR/β-actin is indicated below the band. (C) The proportion of TGR5/β-actin or FXR/β-actin expressed in tumors relative to normal control tissues was correlated with histological differentiation.
