CHI3L1 promotes cancer cell migration and invasion in vitro. (a) Eight stable transfected cell lines (HepG2-CHI3L1, HepG2-Con, HepG2-shCHI3L1, HepG2-Shc; Bel7404-CHI3L1, Bel7404-Con, Bel7404-shCHI3L1, Bel7404-Shc) were seeded into the upper chambers of transwell plates and complete culture medium was added to the lower chambers. Numbers of migration cells were counted and image were taken at 10 hours after seeding the cells. (b) The invasion assays were performed on these 8 stable transduced cell lines. Numbers of invasion cells were counted and image were taken at 48 hours after seeding the cells. (c) Cells were seeding into 6-wells plates. The images were taken at 48 hours after the scratches were made. **, *** and **** represent p < 0.05, p < 0.01 and p < 0.001 by two-tailed t test. Scale bar represents 50 μm. Error bar represents SD calculated from three independent experiments.
