    Thermo Fisher primary antibodies against pdcd4
    <t>PDCD4</t> protein was detected in three sets of normal and breast cancer tissues using immunohistochemistry. (A) PDCD4 protein expression was detected in five normal and five BC tissues using immunohistochemistry, and decreased substantially in BC tissues compared with normal control tissues. (B) PDCD4 protein expression was determined by immunohistochemistry in five normal and five BC tissues, and was notably decreased in BC tissues. (C) PDCD4 protein expression was analyzed in five normal and five BC tissues by immunohistochemistry, but was downexpressed in BC tissues. BC, breast cancer; PDCD4, programmed cell death 4.

    Analysis of the expression of miR-206 and PDCD4 in the SANFH specimens. Investigation using RT-qPCR demonstrated that the (A) mRNA expression level of miR-206 was increased compared with the control, while (B) RT-qPCR and (C) western blotting demonstrated that PDCD4 was inhibited in SANFH specimens compared with the control. (D) Correlation analysis between the relative expression of PDCDA and miR-206. There was a negative correlation between the expression levels of the two indicators. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001 vs. control. RT-qPCR, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction; miR, microRNA; PDCD4, programmed cell death 4; SANFH, steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head.
