Effect of hGC33-SFB-NP on EMT inhibition. a Compared with the control group, the hGC33-SFB-NP treatment group had less cell migration. Photographs were taken under an optical microscope (magnification, × 200). The error value represents the standard deviation of three independent experiments. *Compared with the control group, p < 0.01. b Compared with the control group, the EMT-related proteins snail, vimentin, and MMP-2 in HCCs treated with hGC33-SFB-NP decreased, whereas E-cadherin increased. c Molecular mechanism of EMT. EMT, epithelial–mesenchymal transition; MMP-2, matrix metalloproteinase-2; SFB, sorafenib; NP, nanoparticle
