Fig. 1From: The hepatocyte growth factor-expressing character is required for mesenchymal stem cells to protect the lung injured by lipopolysaccharide in vivoMeasurement of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) expression in mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) after HGF gene knockdown. a Evaluation of HGF mRNA expression in the MSC, MSC-GFP, and MSC-ShHGF groups. b Detection of HGF protein levels in the culture medium of the MSC, MSC-GFP, and MSC-ShHGF groups. c Image for quantification of HGF protein expression in the MSC, MSC-GFP, and MSC-ShHGF groups by Western blotting analysis. d The quantitative results for Western blotting analysis. n = 3. & p < 0.05 vs. the MSC group; # p < 0.05 vs. the MSC-GFP group.
