EGF promotes PD-L1 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma cells (A and B) A significant increase in PD-L1 mRNA (A) and protein expression (B) was observed in Huh-7, HepG2, SNU-368 and SNU-739 cells after treated with EGF for indicated time. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 compared to control group, one-way ANOVA, n = 5 independent experiments per group (C) The ELISA assay showed that the concentration of PD-L1 in the cell culture medium was increased after incubation with EGF for indicated time, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 compared to control group, one-way ANOVA, n = 5 independent experiments per group.
