Plectin-knockdown Chang liver cells appears to have increased Rac1-GTPase activity. Total lysate separately prepared from mock cells and plectin siRNA-transfected cells were applied to Rac1-GTPase pull-down assay and Western blotting assay with anti-Rac1 and anti-plectin antibodies. (a) The result showed that the Rac1-GTPase level was increased in plectin-knockdown cells. (b) The results indicated the quantification of Rac1-GTPase level. Values are presented as mean ± standard error obtained from three independent experiments, * indicates p < 0.05.
