MFG-E8 mRNA and protein level in colonic biopsies from control subjects and UC patients. (A) Semiquantitative PCR of the mRNA level of MFG-E8 in colons of controls (HC) and UC patients and in human colon cancer cell lines HT-29 and Caco-2. β-Actin was an internal control. Real-time quantitative PCR analysis of mRNA level (B) and Western blot analysis of protein level of MFG-E8 (C) in colons from UC patients and healthy controls. *Not representative outliers. Human β-actin was a loading control. Quantification is median (line within the box) and interquartile range (top and bottom of the box). Upper and lower whiskers indicate the 95th and 5th percentile, respectively.
