From: HB-EGF-induced IL-8 secretion from airway epithelium leads to lung fibroblast proliferation and migration

Fig. 5

IL-8 promoted proliferation and migration of human lung fibroblasts. CCK-8 assay was used to evaluate fibroblasts proliferation. Lung fibroblasts were treated with different concentrations of combination IL-8 (5 ng/ml and 10 ng/ml) for 24 h and 48 h (a). Transwell migration assay was measured the migration capacity of fibroblasts. 10 ng/ml rhIL-8 was used to induce fibroblasts for 24 h (b, c). Data are from one experiment representative of three independent experiments. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM. #P < 0.05, ###P < 0.001 versus control; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 versus control
