MDA-7 promotes apoptosis of the liver cancer cells. (A) The cell apoptosis rates of the liver cancer cells (HepG2, HepG2-pcDNA3 and HepG2-pcDNA3-MDA-7) following transfection of MDA-7; compared with the untransfected HepG2 and the pcDNA3 transfected HepG2 cells, the HepG2 cells transfected with pcDNA3-MDA-7 exhibited evidently higher apoptosis rate (**P<0.05). (B) Τhe cell apoptosis rates of the normal liver cells (L02, L02-pcDNA3 and L02-pcDNA3-MDA-7) following transfection of MDA-7. MDA-7, melanoma differentiation associated gene-7, also called interleukin 24 (IL-24).
