Fig 5. Significant differences in the modulation of the expression of the luciferase reporter gene considering either the cell type or the status of HLA-G expression, with 1Fter-2R and 1Fter-4R constructions and haplotypes combined.

Points indicate the mean and vertical bars indicate the 95% confidence interval. The number of experiments considering each cell line or the status of HLA-G expression is indicated between parentheses. MW: Mann-whitney test; KW: Kruskal-Wallis test. (A) Modulation of luciferase gene expression in each cell line separately. The decrease in the luciferase gene activity in U251MG (HLA-G-) and FON cells (HLA-G+) was not statistically different. (B) Modulation of luciferase gene expression in the HLA-G- (M8 + U251MG) cells vs HLA-G + (FON + JEG-3) cells combined.
