Effects of inhibition of IL-6 signaling on proliferation and colony-formation of LHB-expressing cells. (A) Phosphorylated stat3, stat3 and actin were analyzed by immunoblotting. (B) Designated cells were treated with JSI-124 (10 μM), a Jak2 inhibitor, and their proliferation was assessed. (C) Colony-forming ability of LHB-expressing cells was examined by a colony forming assay in the absence or presence of JSI-124. (D and E) Cells were transfected with siRNAs (200 nM) targeting JAK2 (D), stat3 (E) or control scrambled siRNAs as indicated. Cells proliferation was analyzed by MTT assay. Data represent means ± SD. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
