Serum Artemin Is Increased and Correlated with Poor Prognosis in HCC Patients (A) Serum level of artemin in healthy donors, patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), liver cirrhosis (LC), and HCC patients from four independent cohorts (HCC1– HCC4) were determined by ELISA. The horizontal lines in the boxplots represent the median, the boxes represent the interquartile range, and the whiskers represent the 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles. The p values were calculated using Student’s t test as shown.

The p values were calculated using Student’s t test as shown. (C) The correlation of serum artemin and serum TGF-b in HCC patients of cohorts 3 and 4 was analyzed by Pearson’s correlation coefficient assay with R and p values indicated. (D) The serum level of TGF-b derived from HCC patients in cohorts 3 and 4 before surgery and 7 days after curative resection was detected by ELISA.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 4. Increased Artemin Receptor GFRa3 Expression and Its Signaling in HCC Tissue Is Correlated with Poor Prognosis in HCC Patients (A) The protein levels of GFRa3 and phosphorylated RET in human normal liver tissues, para-HCC tissues, and HCC tissues were detected by IHC and measured by defining regions of interest (ROI) using automated cell acquisition and quantification software for IHC. (B) The correlation between serum level of artemin in HCC patients and the expression of its receptor GFRa3 in HCC tissues derived from cohorts 1 and 2 was analyzed by Pearson’s correlation coefficient assay with R and p values indicated. (C) The correlation between serum level of artemin in HCC patients and RET phosphorylation in HCC tissues derived from cohorts 1 and 2 was analyzed by Pearson’s correlation coefficient assay with R and p values indicated. (D) The higher GFRa3 mRNA expression in HCC tissues is correlated with the reduced disease-free survival of HCC patients. Shown are Kaplan-Meier survival curves of disease-free survival in cohorts 1 and 2. The median value of GFRa3 mRNA expression in each cohort was chosen as the cutoff point, with log-rank test for significance. (E) The higher RET phosphorylation in HCC tissues is correlated with the reduced disease-free survival of HCC patients. Shown are Kaplan-Meier survival curves of disease-free survival in cohorts 1 and 2. The median value of RET phosphorylation in each cohort was chosen as the cutoff point, with log-rank test for significance. See also Tables S4 and S5.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 5. Artemin Promotes HCC Progression Both In Vitro and In Vivo (A) HCC SMMC-7721 and HepG2 cells were stimulated with recombinant human artemin at indicated concentrations in rapamycin (10 ng/mL) for 24 hr, then cells were stained using propidium iodide (PI) and annexin V and analyzed by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). The annexin V-positive cells were regarded as apoptotic cells. (B and C) SMMC-7721 or HepG2 cells were pretreated with recombinant human artemin at indicated concentrations for 2 hr, then added to the upper compartment of the chamber and incubated for 12 hr (for migration assay) or 24 hr (for invasion assay). Cells adhered to the lower surface were fixed and stained, and the cell number was counted. (D and E) Hepa cells were treated with Ter-cells, Ter-cells plus neutralizing antibody against mouse artemin, or recombinant mouse artemin as indicated. Cells were treated with rapamycin, and apoptosis was determined using annexin V/PI staining (D). Cells invaded to the lower surface were fixed, stained, and counted as indicated (E). (F and G) After subcutaneous inoculation of HepG2 cells (F) or transplantation of SMMC-LTNM tumor tissues (G) into nude mice, recombinant human artemin was delivered by tail vein injection once every 2 days for 14 days, then tumor growth (upper graphs) and survival (lower graphs) of HCC-bearing nude mice were detected as indicated.
