Involvement of HCV core in the induction of Wnt/β-catenin downstream genes in a variant-specific manner. mRNA levels of the genes indicated at the top of the graphs were quantified following reverse transcription and real-time quantitative PCR in HEK293 cells transfected with HCV core-expressing DNAs, then normalized with respect to housekeeping genes and expressed relatively to respective target mRNAs in pCI-transfected cells, set at 1 (means ± SD of 3 independent experiments). Statistical analyses are as described in Fig. 1 caption.
