Article Title: Exendin-4 Induces Cell Adhesion and Differentiation and Counteracts the Invasive Potential of Human Neuroblastoma Cells

doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0071716

Figure Lengend Snippet: Representative experiment from three independent experiments on the invasive ability of SK-N-AS and SH-SY5Y cells after treatment with 0.3 µM exendin-4 (A); real-time RT-PCR analysis of the expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in NB cells after treatment with 0.3 µM exendin-4 for 6 h. * = p<0.05 vs. related control (B). Size of the cell colonies grown in soft agar 7, 14 or 21 days after suspension, with or without (C = control) exendin-4. Data are reported as mean percentage vs. related control of three replicates. EXE = exendin-4; * = p<0.05 vs. related control; # = p<0.05 vs. C 7d; § = p<0.05 vs. C 14d (C).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Quantitative real-time PCR analysis of VEGFA (a), PGF (b), FLT1 (c), KDR (d), MMP-2 (e), MMP-9 (f), TIMP-1 (g), and TIMP-2 (h). Gene expression levels were increased for VEGFA, PGF, FLT1, KDR, MMP-2, TIMP-1, and TIMP-2 in lung cancer ( n = 29) compared to formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue ( n = 7) and stable lung transplant biopsies ( n = 26). The levels of MMP-9 were significantly decreased. Results are expressed as mean ± SD. Asterisks indicate P < 0.05.
