WNT7A is overexpressed in PDAC cell lines and interference of WNT7A expression inhibits the migration capacity of pancreatic cancer cells. (A) The mRNA and protein levels of WNT7A were detected in five different PDAC cell lines and a nonmalignant cell line hTERT-HPNE by qRT-PCR and Western blot respectively. (B) The expression of WNT7A at mRNA and protein level were determined by qRT-PCR and Western blot respectively in cells transfected with negative control and wnt7a shRNA plasmid. (C) Impact of WNT7A expression interference on two PDAC cell lines’ migration capacity in transwell assays. (D) Impact of WNT7A expression interference on two PDAC cell in wound healing assays. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
