Figure 1From: Peptidylarginine deiminase IV promotes the development of chemoresistance through inducing autophagy in hepatocellular carcinomaThe elevated PADI4 mRNA expression in MDR1(+) HCC patients with TACE. (A) The MDR1 mRNA expression were detected in blood samples before and after TACE. - ΔΔCt, -(ΔCtbefore TACE – ΔCtafter TACE); MDR(+):- ΔΔCt > =0; MDR(-):- ΔΔCt < 0. (B) The progression-free survival (PFS) after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in partial hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma determined by Kaplan-Meier analysis. (C) The PADI4 mRNA expression in HCC tumor tissues associated with chemoresistance. - ΔΔCt, -(ΔCtbefore TACE – ΔCtafter TACE); MDR(+):- ΔΔCt > =0; MDR(-):- ΔΔCt < 0.Back to article page
