Modulation of Bcl-x Alternative Splicing Induces Apoptosis of Human Hepatic Stellate Cells

Gene expression of Bcl- and Bcl- in human HSCs. Real-time PCR analysis of RNA extracted from human HSCs of different passages. (a) The gene expression of Bcl-2, Bcl-, and Bcl- was compared in activated human HSCs (passage 7). (b) The relative expression ratio of Bcl- and Bcl- was compared in human hepatocytes and human HSCs at different passages.
