Figure 9. The cross-induction of HB-EGF, TGF-α, EGF and AR mRNA by epiregulin
HCECs were incubated with 10 ng/ml epiregulin for 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 h, and the relative expressions of HB-EGF, TGF-α, EGF, and AR mRNA were examined by real-time PCR. The amount of mRNA was calculated relative to the amount of GAPDH mRNA in the same samples. Asterisks indicate a significant difference from the corresponding control (0 h). P values were calculated by the two-sample t test. Results are mean±SEM of five independent experiments.
