Effects of exposure for 120 h to HRV-16 alone, Activin A alone, and the combination on expression of E-cadherin in BEAS-2B cells. BEAS-2B cells were incubated with medium alone, HRV-16, Activin A, and HRV-16 + TGF-β1 for 120 h. a Representative western blot for E-cadherin. b Densitometry analysis for E-cadherin (n = 6). Asterisk indicates significance for comparisons shown by Dunn’s post-hoc analysis after Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA. Hatchmark indicates synergy compared to the sum of responses to individual stimuli by Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed ranks test
