Figure 7. Brms1 expression plays important roles in the suppression of MB49-derived lung colonization/metastasis in SK1−/− mice.
- A. Stable knockdown of Brms1 in response to lentiviral vector based expression of shRNAs (against Brms1 compared to non-targeting Scr shRNAs) in MB49 cells was confirmed using Q-PCR (normalized using rRNA levels). Data are represented as mean ± SD. Error bars represent standard deviations. p < 0.05 (*) was considered significant.
- B,C. Effects of shRNA-mediated knockdown of Brms1 in MB49 cells on lung metastasis (B) and colonization (C) after tail vein injections in WT and SK1−/− mice (n = 8) were measured compared to controls (sh-Scr). Data are represented as mean ± SD. Error bars represent standard deviations. p < 0.05 (*) was considered significant.
