From: AQP8 promotes glioma proliferation and growth, possibly through the ROS/PTEN/AKT signaling pathway
Western blot staining results. (A-E) A172; (F-J) U251. (A,D,F,I) Western blot showing the expression levels of PTEN, AKT, p-AKT, Bax, and Bcl-2 proteins in A172 and U251 cells. (B,C,E,G,H,J) Analysis of the effect of AQP8 on these proteins (vs. control, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001). AQP, aquaporin; PTEN, phosphatase and tensin homolog; AKT, serine/threonine protein kinase; p-AKT, phosphorylated AKT; NC, negative control; O.E, overexpressed; K.D, knockdown. All experiments were performed in triplicate
