Figure 4

Interaction between CIP2A, KRAS genotype and proliferation in the Caco-2 KRAS wild-type cell line. The result of immunoblot and proliferation assay is shown in (a) and (b), respectively. Column 1 vs. 2: CIP2A knockdown by shCIP2A resulted in decreased CIP2A, KRAS, and pERK expression as well as decreased proliferation; Column 1 vs. 3: KRAS overexpression by pCMV6-KRAS G12D resulted in increased KRAS, CIP2A, and pERK expression, as well as increased proliferation; Column 3 vs. 4: in Caco-2 cells with KRAS overexpression by pCMV6-KRAS G12D, knockdown of CIP2A by shCIP2A resulted in decreased CIP2A and KRAS expression. However, it did not cause significantly decreased pERK expression or decreased proliferation (*P < 0.05).
