Effects of HGF knockdown in MRC5 cells on invasiveness of lung cancer cell lines in organotypic co-culture. The mean percent reduction in invaded area represents change to invasion compared to their native cell line counterparts. Co-cultures were performed on three separate occasions. MRC5^-HGF denotes cells with stable HGF knockdown.

Cell Line Combination	Mean Percent Reduction in Invaded Area (±SD)
A549/MRC5-HGF	19.15% (±15.79)
PC9/MRC5-HGF	53.27% (±13.45)
PC9ER/MRC5-HGF	58.03% (±20.62)
