Effects of CsGRN overexpression on the regulation of EMT-related gene expression. (A) The expression of vimentin, N-cadherin, β-catenin, and ZO-1 was detected in CsGRN-overexpressed LO2 cells by Western blot. (B) The protein quantification was measured by Image J software. (C) The relative mRNA expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) was detected in transfected LO2 cells. * P < 0.05 versus control group, ** P < 0.01 versus control group, *** P < 0.001 versus control group.
