Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 4. Fascin overexpression inhibited E-cadherin expression in cholangiocarcinoma RBE cells. A, E-cadherin mRNA expression was detected in each group of cells by real-time PCR. B, E-cadherin was detected by immunofluorescence. Fluorescence microscopy showed that E-cadherin was highly expressed in the cells of parental group and the pcDNA3.1 group (red), and the nuclei were stained blue by DAPI. Scale bars 20 mm. C, E-cadherin protein expression levels were detected by Western blot, and b-actin served as an internal control for the grayscale analysis. The data are presented as the mean + standard deviation. Compared with the pcDNA3.1 transfection group, ** indicates P < .01. Compared with the parental group, ## indicates P < .01. mRNA indicates messenger RNA; PCR, polymerase chain reaction; cDNA, comple- mentary DNA; DAPI, 40,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole.

Article Snippet: The fascin (1:100 dilution, Boster) and E-cadherin antibodies (1:100 dilution, Wanleibio) were added, followed by incubation at 4 C overnight.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 5. The regulation of E-cadherin expression by fascin was independent of NF-kB signaling pathway. A, Cytoplasmic p-IkB and nuclear NF-kB p65 protein expression levels were detected by Western blot, and the grayscale analysis was performed with b-actin and Lamin A as the internal controls, respectively. The data are presented as the mean + standard deviation. B and C, E-cadherin protein expression was detected by Western blot. For the NF-kB inhibitor treatment group, BAY11-7082 was added to a final concentration of 3 mmol/L and incubated for 24 hours before analyzing E-cadherin expression. For the NF-kB siRNA intervention group, cell transfection was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Representative results are shown in this figure. The data are presented as the mean + standard deviation. Compared with the pcDNA3.1 transfection group, ** indicates P < .01. Compared with the parental group, ## indicates P < .01. Compared with the pcDNA3.1þBAY11-7082 group, $$ indicates P < .01. NF-kB indicates nuclear factor-kB; siRNA, small interfering RNA; cDNA, comple- mentary DNA.
