Knockdown of LR attenuates PEDF-induced HCC cell migration, invasion and EMT. (a) SMMC-7721, HCC-LY5 and PLC/PRF/5 cells overexpressing PEDF were transfected with shRNA targeting to LR as described. The migration and invasion ability were assessed using transwell assays. Cells transfected with the empty vector were used as a control (*P<0.05 and **P<0.01). (b) SMMC-7721, HCC-LY5 and PLC/PRF/5 cells overexpressing PEDF were transfected with shRNA targeting to LR as described. The expression of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, slug, pERK1/2 and ERK1/2 was detected by western blotting
