exo-adipocyte-conditioned medium is chemotactic and promotes HepG2 migration. a Transwell migration assays showed that THP-1 cells were more chemotactic toward exo-adipocyte-conditioned medium than adipocyte-conditioned medium. Left is a representative microscopic image of crystal violet staining; right shows the statistical results. b Transwell migration assays showed that HepG2 cells were more chemotactic toward exo-adipocyte-conditioned medium than adipocyte-conditioned medium. Left is a representative microscopic image of crystal violet staining; right shows the statistical results. c Migratory abilities of HepG2 co-cultured with exo-adipocyte-conditioned medium or adipocyte-conditioned medium were determined by wound healing assay
