The levels of gC1qR in cervical tissues. Relative gC1qR gene and protein levels are shown for human cervical squamous cell carcinoma tissues (T) and surrounding non-neoplastic tissues (N). A: The mRNA levels of gC1qR were analysed by real-time PCR. **p < 0.01, significantly different when compared with surrounding non-neoplastic tissues (n = 30). B: The levels of gC1qR protein were measured by Western blot analysis. The graph shows the relative gC1qR protein levels, which were quantified and normalised to β-actin. Values are represented as the means ± SD. The gC1qR gene levels were low in human cervical squamous cell carcinoma tissues. **p < 0.01, significantly different when compared with surrounding non-neoplastic tissues (n = 30).
