Overexpression of FGF9 leads to development of cisplatin resistance in LoVo cells. (A) Compared with parental LoVo cells (LoVo/parental), cisplatin resistant LoVo cells (LoVo/cisplatin) were less sensitive to cisplatin treatment. ***P<0.001 vs. LoVo/parental. (B) Protein expression for FGF9 and β-catenin in LoVo/cisplatin cells increased and APC protein expression decreased compared with LoVo/parental cells. (C) Quantitative analysis of FGF9, APC and β-catenin protein expression from panel B. (D) Silencing of FGF9 enhanced cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity in LoVo/cisplatin cells. **P<0.01 vs. control siRNA. FGF9, fibroblast growth factor 9; APC, adenomatous polyposis coli; siRNA, small interfering RNA.
