The positive clones were examined by western-blotting and immunofluorescence,cell growth was analyzed with MTT assay. Results:The eukaryotic expression vector pCI-TSLC1 was successfully constructed and the stable cell line highly expressing TSLC1 protein was obtained.The growth of TSLC1-transfected cells was significantly suppressed in vitro.Conclusion:The HepG2 stable cell line could highly express TSLC1 protein,which provided a basis for further exploring the roles of TSLC1 in hepatocellular carcinoma.展开更多
