Figure 4. Effect of overexpression of PKC Beta II on colon cancer cells.

Figure 4

The effect of overexpressing PKC Beta II in colon cancer cells was examined using HCT116 cells stably over expressing HA_PKCBeta II. (A) Representative western blot showing the expression of p-PKC Beta II in stable overexpressing HCT116 cells (n = 3). (B) Representative images demonstrating the difference in the cells ability to form colonies when overexpressing PKC Beta II (n = 3). (C) Images demonstrating the difference in the size of cells growing in a 3D matrix over 144 hours (n = 3). Bar graph represents the percentage difference in the size of 3D cultures at 144 hours. Confocal images are cells harvested and stained after 144 hours (n = 3). (D) Representative image of cells that were scored with a wound and allowed to migrate over 24 hours. Bar graph represents the percentage wound closer after 24 hours (n = 3). (E) Representative graph of cells migrating over a period of 72 hours analysed in real time on the xCELLigence system (n = 3). Bar graph represents the percentage difference in cell index. (F) Representative graph of cells invading over a period of 72 hours analysed in real time on the xCELLigence system (n = 3). Bar graph represents the percentage difference in cell index.
