Figure Lengend Snippet: IL-22 promotes cell growth and motility via TRIM30/Sox17 axis. (A) TPC-1 cells transfected with the pCMV-TRIM30 or control vector for 24 h and treated with or without 50 ng/ml rhIL- 22 for 24 h prior to cell proliferation assay. (B) Experiments were performed as in ( a ), except cells were transfected with shRNA- TRIM30. (C and D) TPC-1 cells were transfected with the indicated plasmid, then treated with rhIL-22 (50 ng/ml) for 48 h prior to Transwell migration ( c ) or invasion ( d ) assays. ( e and f ) Experiments were performed as in ( c and d ), except cells were transfected with shRNA-TRIM30. (G) TPC-1 cells were transfected with the plasmids as indicated for 48 h prior to cell proliferation assay. ( i ) Experiments were performed as in ( g ), except cells were transfected with shRNA-Sox17. (I and J) TPC-1 cells were transfected with the plasmids as indicated for 48 h prior to Transwell migration ( i ) or invasion ( j ) assays. ( k and l ) Experiments were performed as in (I and J), except cells were transfected with shRNA-Sox17. (M-P) TPC-1 cells were stably expressing TRIM30, SOX17, or TRIM30 and SOX17 were subcutaneous injected into nude mice. Shown are stripped tumors ( m ), the growth curve ( n ), and the average weight ( o ). The indicated tumor tissue from a single mouse in each group was cut into several pieces and then used for immunoblot ( p ). Tumors were from the fourth column in each group. Bar graphs present means ± SD, n = 3 (** P < 0.01; * P < 0.05)
