Additional file 1: of Ajuba inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma cell growth via targeting of β-catenin and YAP signaling and is regulated by E3 ligase Hakai through neddylation
Figure S1. The regulation of β-Catenin and cell growth in HCC cells. (A, B) HCC cells were transfected with specific siRNAs to silence GSK3β protein in Ajuba-depleted HCC cell lines. The expression of GSK3β, Ajuba, CyclinD1 and GAPDH were tested by immunoblot assay (A). β-Catenin translocation were tested by confocal assay, Scale bar = 25 μm (B). (C, D) HCC cells were transfected with specific siRNAs to silence β-Catenin protein in Ajuba-depleted HCC cell lines. The expression of β-Catenin, Ajuba, CyclinD1 and GAPDH were tested by immunoblot assay (C). Cell growth was tested by colony formation (D). (E) HCC cells were transfected with specific siRNAs to silence YAP protein in Ajuba-depleted HCC cell lines. Cell growth was tested by colony formation. Data are presented as Mean ± SEM from three independent experiments (***p < 0.001). (JPG 515 kb
