A furin inhibitor decreases the expression level of 9F5 antigen. COS‐7 cells were cotransfected with pcDNA3.1‐Gpnmb/pcDNA3.1 or pcDNA3.1‐Gpnmb/pcDNA3.1‐α1PDX vector. A: At 72 hr after transfection, cells were double‐stained with 9F5 (red) and anti‐GPNMB (green) antibodies. B: The results shown in A were quantified and are given as means ± SEM (n = 3–4). Fluorescence intensities (9F5 and anti‐GPNMB) in cells transfected with pcDNA3.1‐Gpnmb/pcDNA3.1 were set at 100%. **P < 0.01 by Dunnett's multiple comparison test.
