Upregulation of AEG-1 expression in SGC tissues. (A and B) Expression of AEG-1 protein and mRNA in 2 normal human salivary gland tissues and 8 SGC tissues by Western blot (A) and real-time PCR (B), respectively. *P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001. (C) Expression of AEG-1 protein in each of the primary SGC tissues (T) and adjacent non-cancerous tissues (N) in the same patient determined by Western blot. (D) Real time-PCR analysis of AEG-1 expression in each of the T and N tissues. GAPDH was used as an internal control. Columns, mean from three parallel experiments; bars, SD. (E) Expression of AEG-1 mRNA in each of the primary SGC tissues (lower panel) and adjacent non-cancerous tissues (upper panel) paired from the same patient determined by IHC.
