Decreased matrix rigidity inhibits EMT independent of apoptosis. (A) Phase contrast and immunostaining for N-cadherin, E-cadherin, α-SMA, and nuclei of NMuMG cells infected with retro-Bcl-xL on compliant gels. (B) Western blot and quantification of N-cadherin, E-cadherin, α-SMA, and GAPDH in NMuMG cells infected with retro-GFP or retro-Bcl-xL or treated with 400 μM ZVAD-FMK, plated on rigid and compliant gels, and treated with TGF-β1. n = 4 ± SEM. Bars, 50 μm.
