Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis (a) and Gene set variation analysis (GSVA) (b) were conducted in TCGA dataset to explore PGAM1-related downstream pathways. ce GSEA analysis the enrichment of the TGF-β signaling pathway related genesets in NSCLC tissues with different PGAM1 expression level. Expression levels of TGF-β, BMP4, ICAM1 and VCAM1 in A549 cells transfected with shCtrl or shPGAM1 were analyzed by real-time PCR (f), western blot (g) in vitro. h The xenografts were embedded in paraffin blocks and paraffin sections were examined by IHC staining. Scale bars, 100 μm. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
