Cultivation of T3M4 or HuH7 on hydrocell dishes causes loss of E-cadherin and downmodulation of keratin.

T3M4HuH7
Culture for 24 h

E-cadherin expression**16,74% (±12,65)28,22% (±22,08)
Keratin expression**63,33% (±26,91)27,79% (±15,47)

**Measured as mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) in relation to the MFI of untreated cells which were set as 100%.
