CXCL5 activates both MAPK and PI3K signaling in transformed LNCaP prostate epithelial cells. Transformed LNCaP cells rapidly and transiently phosphorylated both ERK 1/2 and the p65 subunit of NF-κB on treatment with subnanomolar (10 or 100 pM) levels of CXCL5. Immunoblots are shown in the top panel, and corresponding densitometric evaluations of the same blots are shown in the bottom panel. Phosphorylation relative to total protein quantitated from the immunoblot is shown in the densitometric plots as phospho/total protein. A total of 100 µg of protein lysate was electrophoresed per well. Primary antibody concentrations used were as described for Figure 5.
