Figure 5. Expression of proteins involved in autocrine angiogenesis and metastasis in Juniperus communis (JCo) extract-treated HT-29 cells. HT-29 cells were treated with 65 μg/mL JCo extract for 0, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h, and the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), VEGF receptor 1 (VEGFR1), VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, and MMP-9 were analyzed by western blotting.
