Figure 3. Knockdown of amplified SMURF1 in AsPC-1 cells reduces anchorage-independent growth.

Figure 3

(A) A stably transduced shRNA targeting SMURF1 leads to reduced SMURF1 levels (by Western blot) compared to a non-targeting control shRNA. Residual SMURF1 levels, here normalized to GAPDH, are indicated. (B) Stable SMURF1 knockdown reduces anchorage-independent growth (i.e. soft agar colonies). Assay done in triplicate (mean +/− 1SD shown); *, P<0.05 (Student's t-test).
