Propofol Reduced Mammosphere Formation of Breast Cancer Stem Cells via PD-L1/Nanog In Vitro

Figure 4

Propofol could not reduce the mammosphere formation of shPD-L1 cells in vitro. (a) LV-shPD-L1 significantly reduced the protein expression of PD-L1 and Nanog in cells by western blot. (b) LV-shPD-L1 significantly reduced the expression of PD-L1 and Nanog mRNA in cells by real-time PCR. (c, d) Compared with shControl stem cells, there was no significant difference in the inhibitory effect of propofol on the mammosphere-forming ability of shPD-L1 stem cells (). NS: not significant; ; ; ; compared with the control group.
