Gene expression of liver proteins: (A) Total RNA was isolated using Trizol agent and after quality verification, PCR was carried out using PCR kit and the products were run on 1% agarose gel to analyse the expression of genes of Alb, AFP, CK18 and CK19. Lane:1 Control, Lane:2 HSC, Lane:3 MSC, Lane:4 HSC+HGF-CNP, Lane:5 MSC+HGF-CNP. All these genes were highly expressed in MSC treated groups compared to control and HSC treated groups. (B) Semiquantification of liver specific proteins - mRNAs Alb, AFP, CK18 and CK19 of control and treated groups were significantly expressed in MSC and MSC+HGF-CNP treatment. In control and HSC treated groups, expressions were not significant. (C)RT-PCR expression of sry gene (Male Y chromosome specific gene). Sry gene is expressed in all treated groups, showing the presence of chimerism. in all groups.
