Figure 5. Differential roles for BPHTF/BPHPF AR in macrophage cell infiltration and macrophage-induced stromal cell proliferation. (a) THP-1 (1*105/well) were co-cultured with BPHTF-scr /BPHTF-shAR or BPHPF-scr /BPHPF-shAR cells for 24 h in transwell plates (5 µm). Migrated macrophages were counted or assayed with MTT. (b) BPHTF-scr /BPHTF-shAR or BPHPF-scr /BPHPF-shAR cells were co-cultured with THP-1 cells and assayed with MTT at 2, 4, and 6 days.
