Fig. 3. SMO facilitated the proliferation, migration, invasion, EMT, and stemness of activated HSCs.

AB EdU (bar value = 100 μm) and colony formation assays depicted the proliferation of exosomes-activated HSCs with or without knockdown of SMO. CE. Wound-healing (bar value = 80 μm) and transwell assays (bar value = 50 μm) unveiled the influence of silenced SMO on the migration and invasion capacity of exosomes-activated HSCs. F Western blot detected the levels of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, OCT4, and Nanog in exosomes-activated HSCs cells with or without SMO deficiency. G Sphere formation assay (bar value = 50 μm) uncovered the influence of silenced SMO on the stemness of activated HSCs. **P < 0.01.
