Influence of GSK3β inhibition on TRAIL activity in A549 (WT and Dyn1KO) cells. (A) Immunoblots of two representative single clones. Clone 11 was chosen for additional assays (50, 25, and 12.5 µg of loaded protein per each condition). (B) Levels of surface bound FLAG-tag TRAIL (100 ng/mL) in A549 WT and Dyn1KO cells after different incubation times at 4 °C. (C) TRAIL effects on cell viability in A549 WT and Dyn1KO cells, in the presence or absence of the GSK3β inhibitor Chir99021 (10 µM). (D) Effectiveness of Chir99021 after 15-min incubation, as measured by phosphorylated S6K. Cells were preincubated with Chir99021 for 30 min, followed by treatment with several concentrations of TRAIL (1–1,000 ng/mL) and assayed for cell viability. Reduction in cell viability (%) was calculated relative to control wells containing no ligand. All of the results are mean values ± SD (n = 3). Two-tailed Student’s t tests were used to assess statistical significance. ***P < 0.0005.
