    a)<p>IC50 values are calulated from logit regression line from triplicate assays. IC50 values (µM) for erlotinib, gefitinib, lapatinib, SU11274, BIBW2992 and cisplatin are 0.04, 0.03, 3.16, 3.97, 0.00021 and 2.07 in PC9, 9.96, 5.04, 14.54, 3.97, 0.41 and 2.89 in PC9/ER1, 0.87, 0.32, 2.57, 4.22, 0.35 and 5.37 in 11–18, 20.88, 8.32, 2.83, 4.64, 0.49 and 1.61 in 11–18/ER1-7, 95.7, 20.48, 4.11, 5.06, 0.74 and 9.13 in 11–18/ER2-1, >29.58, 11.52, 13.36, 3.38 and 2.41 in 11–18/GEF10-1, and >29.58, 10.24, 14.14, 3.80 and 1.61 in 11–18/GEF20-1 respectively. The relative resistance is defined as the IC50 value divided by the IC50 value of the parental PC9 or 11–18.</p>b)<p>nt, not tested.</p

    <p>A, B, Exponentially growing PC9 and PC9/ER1 cells were exposed to various doses of wortmannin (A) and LY294002 (B) for 5 hr, and followed by Western blot analysis. C. PC9 and PC9/ER1 cells were treated with PIK3CA siRNA or scramble (SC) siRNA for 48 h, and followed by western blot analysis.</p

    <p>Total EGFR antibody stained all four histological and cytological samples. Anti-delE746-A750 antibody stained only cancer cells with the delE746-A750 mutation (A, case 1) (see <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0041017#pone-0041017-t002" target="_blank">Table 2</a>), and the EGFR L858R antibody stained only cancer cells with the L858R mutations (B, case 9) in both histological and cytological samples. No staining was evident by both EGFR delE746-A750 and EGFR L858R antibodies in cancer cells without the activating EGFR mutations in cytological samples (C: case 6 and D: case 11).</p

    The effect of erlotinib, lapatinib and BIBW2992 on phosphorylation of Akt and EGFR family proteins in PC9/ER1 cells.

    <p>A, PC9/ER1 cells were treated with or without 1 µM erlotinib, and 5 µM lapatinib for 5 hrs, and followed Western blot analysis. B, PC9/ER1 cells were treated with 10 nM of siRNAs of scrumble and EGFR family genes, and exposed to erlotinib (1 µM) or BIBW2992 (1 µM) for 5 hrs, and followed Western blot analysis.</p
