Figure 7. The enhanced expression of AURKA and CDC20 in HCC cell lines and knockdown of AURKA and CDC20 in Huh-7 and SK Hep-1 by siRNAs. (A and C) The expression of AURKA in two HCC cell lines (Huh-7 and SK Hep-1) and one liver cell line (QSG-7701) was evaluated by qRT-PCR (A) and Western blots (C); (B and C) The expression of CDC20 in Huh-7, SK Hep-1 cells and QSG-7701 cells was evaluated by qRT-PCR (B) and Western blots (C); (D and E) qRT-PCR and Western blots shows the effects of siRNAs on expression of AURKA and CDC20 in Huh-7 and SK Hep-1 cells. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001.
