From: Effects of hepatitis C virus core protein and nonstructural protein 4B on the Wnt/β-catenin pathway
HCV core protein and NS4B promote the proliferation of Huh7 cells or the proliferation of LO2 cells under Wnt3a induction. a Cell growth curves of Huh7 strains. Compared with Huh7-mkate2 or Huh7-NS4B, ** P < 0.01. b Cell growth curves of LO2 strains. Compared with LO2-mkate2, **P < 0.01. c PCA of Huh7 strains. d PCA of LO2 strains. e PCA of LO2 strains after stimulated using 200 ng/ml Wnt3a. f Cell cycle results of Huh7 strains. Compared with Huh7-mkate2, **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05. g Cell cycle results of LO2 strains. Compared with LO2-mkate2, **P < 0.01. h Cell cycle results of LO2 strains after 24-h stimulation using 200 ng/ml Wnt3a. Compared with LO2-mkate2 or LO2-NS4B, **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05
