CC Chemokine Ligand 18 Correlates with Malignant Progression of Prostate Cancer
Figure 1
CCL18 mRNA and protein expression in prostate cancer (PCa) and adjacent benign prostate tissues detected by real-time quantitative RT-PCR assay (b) and western blot analysis ((a) and (c)). The statistical analysis showed that CCL18 mRNA average expression level () was significantly upregulated in PCa tissues compared with those in noncancerous prostate tissues (, , (b)), which was consistent with the findings of western blot analysis on CCL18 protein expression (, PCa: versus benign: , , (a) and (c)).
