FOXO3 and cervical cancer: FOXO3a mRNA expression in the HCxECs (mean ± SEM = 2.092 ± 0.686) was significantly higher than those in all cervical cancer cell lines: C-33A (0.094 ± 0.012, p = 0.0068), CaSki (0.100 ± 0.011, p = 0.0069), SiHa (0.022 ± 0.004, p = 0.0053), and HeLa cells (0.031 ± 0.002, p = 0.0055) (Fig. 3B).
