SMAC mimetic 38 induces degradation of cIAP1.

Abstract

<p>MDA-MB-231 cells were seeded at 40,000 per well of 12 well plates and cultured overnight. The next day, cultures were either left untreated (No trtm) or were treated for 6 h. with DMSO, 5 μM of SMAC mimetic <b>38</b> or 5 μM of inactive analogue compound <b>40</b>. Cells were lysed in SDS-sample buffer and lysates were analyzed by SDS-PAGE/immunoblotting using antibodies specific for cIAP1 and beta-actin. Molecular weight markers are indicated in kilo-Daltons (kDa).</p
