Knockdown of LRG-1 prevents the EMT process in the thyroid cancer HTC/C3 and SW579 cell lines. (A) The mRNA and (B) protein levels of EMT-associated markers (E-cadherin, N-cadherin and vimentin) in thyroid cancer cells transfected with shLRG-1 or control scramble shRNA were measured by qPCR and western blot assays. (C) Expression levels of SNAIL1, SNAIL2, ZEB1 and ZEB2 in LRG-1-knockdown and control thyroid cancer cells. Data are presented as the mean ± SD (three independent experiments). *P<0.05; **P<0.01; ***P<0.001 vs. control (shCtrl). LRG-1, leucine-rich-alpha-2-glycoprotein 1; EMT, epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
