RUNX3-induced Wnt signaling activation. (a) Western blotting of the RUNX3 expression in gastric cancer cells. (b) Relative luciferase activity of TOPflash/FOPflash in the respective gastric cancer cells transfected with RUNX3 or R122C mutant RUNX3 vector to the control vector-transfected cells. (c) Luciferase activity of the TOPflash and FOPflash in KatoIII-R3 cells and siRNA-transfected KatoIII-R3 cells relative to the level in the parental KatoIII cells. (d) Relative luciferase activity of TOPflash/FOPflash in KatoIII cells transfected with RUNX3 expression vector. (e) Relative expression levels of the Wnt target genes, SOX4 and Axin2, detected by RT-PCR in the RUNX3 vector-transfected cells (red) or RUNX3 siRNA-transfected cells (blue) to the control level. (f) Relative luciferase activity of TOPflash/FOPflash in AZ521 and MKN45 cells transfected with RUNX3 siRNA to the control level. (b–f) Bar graphs are shown as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05 versus control levels otherwise indicated.
