Figure Lengend Snippet: Identification and multi-level validation of TPI1 as a pivotal prognostic driver. (A) Lollipop chart showing the selection frequency of feature genes across 101 machine learning models, identifying TPI1 as a high-frequency core gene. (B) Univariate Cox regression analysis of candidate genes; TPI1 exhibited the most substantial Hazard Ratio (HR), characterizing it as a preeminent risk factor. (C) Expression profiling of TPI1 across malignant versus paracancerous tissues within the TCGA-LIHC discovery cohort (upper) and GSE14520 validation cohort (lower). (D) Kaplan-Meier overall survival curves comparing patients with high and low TPI1 expression in the TCGA-LIHC (top) and GSE14520 (bottom) cohorts. (E) Relative mRNA expression levels of TPI1 in the immortalized human hepatocyte line (MIHA) and HCC cell lines (Huh7, SMMC-7721) determined by RT-qPCR. (F) Representative Western blot images (left) and densitometric quantification (right) of TPI1 protein levels in MIHA, Huh7, and SMMC-7721 cells. GAPDH served as the internal loading control. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001.

Article Title: Comprehensive characterization of SLC41A3 identifies it as an immune-related prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in hepatocellular carcinoma

doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2026.1861310

Figure Lengend Snippet: SLC41A3 promotes HCC progression. (A) Western blot analysis confirming the knockdown efficiency of SLC41A3 in Hep3B and HuH7 cells transfected with shRNA targeting SLC41A3. (B) CCK-8 assay evaluating cell proliferation at specified time points after SLC41A3 silencing in HCC cells. (C) Colony formation ability of Hep3B and HuH7 cells was inhibited after SLC41A3 knockdown. (D) Transwell migration and invasion assays indicated impaired migration and invasion capabilities after SLC41A3 downregulation in both cell lines. (E) Wound healing assay showed reduced cell motility after SLC41A3 knockdown. Scale bar, 100 μm. Data are presented as the mean ± SD of three independent experiments. *** P < 0.001.

Article Snippet: The human HCC cell lines Hep3B and Huh7 were purchased from Procell Biotechnology.

Techniques: Western Blot, Knockdown, Transfection, shRNA, CCK-8 Assay, Migration, Wound Healing Assay
