MG132 effect on 3-methylcholanthrene-induced AhR degradation in p23-specific knockdown stable Hepa1c1c7, Hep3B, and HeLa cells. SA210 was used to detect AhR. Wild type (WT), negative control knockdown stable (NC), and p23-specific knockdown stable p23kd5 Hepa1c1c7 (A), p23kd6 Hep3B (B, top) p23kd8 HeLa (B, bottom) were used. Cells were treated for 6 h with either DMSO, 1 μM 3-methylcholanthrene (3MC), 10 μM MG132, or both. Each lane contained 20 μg of whole cell extract. GAPDH was used for normalization. Western in A was repeated twice and plotted (mean ± SD, n = 3).
