Integrin-linked kinase overexpression promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition via nuclear factor-κB signaling in colorectal cancer cells

Figure 1 Overexpression of integrin-linked kinase in SW480 cells increased integrin-linked kinase protein expression. A: Integrin-linked kinase (ILK) expression in the control, vector, and PCDNA3.1-ILK groups were detected by western blot, with GAPDH as an internal control. This experiment was repeated three times; B: Statistical analysis revealed that ILK expressions significantly increased in the PcDNA3.1-ILK group compared with the vector group. GAPDH: Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.
