Interference with CXCR3 inhibits HBV-LX-2 cell viability and migration and promotes cell apoptosis. (A) Interference with CXCR3 inhibits HBV-LX-2 cell viability. (B) Interference with CXCR3 inhibits the migratory rate of HBV-LX-2 cells. (C) Representative images of HBV-LX-2 cell migration following transfection with siCXCR3. Magnification, ×100. (D) Interference with CXCR3 promotes HBV-LX-2 cell apoptosis. (E) Representative images of HBV-LX-2 cell apoptosis following transfection with siCXCR3. *P<0.05 vs. Control; #P<0.05 vs. NC. CXCR3, C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 3; HBV, hepatitis B virus; siRNA/si, small interfering RNA; NC, siRNA-negative control.
