ARHGEF5-dependent activation of Akt is required for tumor growth from mesenchymal-like colorectal cancer cells. (a) HCT116 cells were treated with TNF-α (50 ng/ml) for the indicated periods, and the levels of the indicated proteins analyzed by western blotting. (b) HT29, SW480 and SW620 cells were transfected with control shRNA or shGEF5 no. 1 and the levels of the indicated proteins were analyzed by western blotting. (c) SW480 and SW620 cells treated with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or with the indicated concentrations of Akt inhibitor were subjected to soft agar colony formation assays. Values represent the mean±s.d. (n=3, ***P<0.001).
