Expression of lncRNA MALAT1/miR-124-3p/PI3K and genes associated with pancreatic development during primary mouse hepatocytes differentiation into IPCs. (A-D) RT-qPCR showing expression of lncRNA MALAT1/miR-124-3p/PI3K and FoxA2 (n = 3, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001). (C) Western blot results show significantly higher protein expression levels of PDX1 in primary mouse hepatocytes after induction (n = 3, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01).
