RacGAP1 is required for pseudopod extension and invasion. (A) A2780 cells were transfected with control or RacGAP1-specific SMARTpool oligonucleotides, seeded onto CDMs, and stimulated with cRGDfV as indicated. Images were captured every 10 min using a 20× objective lens. Representative images are shown. Bar, 50 µm. (B) Pseudopod length (n > 400/condition) was measured for all moving cells within the 20th frame. (C) A2780 cells were transfected as in A and seeded into inverted invasion assays after 16 h in the presence or absence of FN and cRGDfV as indicated. The yellow line indicates the level of invasion under control conditions. (D) A2780 cells stably expressing GFP or FLAG-RacGAP1WT were transfected with control or RacGAP RNAi oligo #6, treated as in C, and seeded into inverted invasion assays in the presence of cRGDfV and FN. (E) MDA-MB-231 cells were transfected as in A and seeded into inverted invasion assays in the presence of FN. (F) H1299 cells stably expressing mutant p53 (273H) or control vector (VEC) were transfected as in A and seeded into inverted invasion assays in the presence of FN. Data represent means ± SEM from at least three independent experiments. *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001.
