From: Impact of PKCε downregulation on autophagy in glioblastoma cells
Effect of PKCε downregulation on the adhesion of glioblastoma cells. a. U-138 MG and b U-118 MG cells were transfected for 72 h with PKCε siRNA (PKCε siRNA) and Control siRNA and then were seeded in culture plates coated with Matrigel (Corning Life Sciences, NY, USA). The photos represent cell adhesion under the microscope at 100 x magnification field. c Evaluation of FAK expression in U-138 MG and U-118 MG cells with knockdown PKCε. Total protein expression and FAK phosphorylation at Tyr-397/Tyr-576/577 were assessed. GAPDH was used as a loading control and as an internal standard. Representative blots are shown. The densitometric analysis represents means ±SD of three independent experiments. * P < 0.05, statistically significant compared to Control siRNA
