Effects of APP overexpression and silencing on the expression levels of EMT-related factors in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. (A) mRNA expression levels of EMT-related genes were detected using RT-qPCR following APP overexpression and silencing in MDA-MB-231 cells. (B) Representative western blotting bands of the protein expression of EMT-related factors. (C) Protein expression levels of EMT-related factors were detected by western blot analysis following APP overexpression and silencing in MDA-MB-231 cells. All experiments were performed in triplicate. Data are presented as the mean ± SD. *P<0.05 vs. control. APP, amyloid precursor protein; EMT, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition; RT-qPCR, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR; MMP, matrix metalloproteinase; shRNA, short hairpin RNA.
