Figure 2. Effects of EPHA3 overexpression on the growth of colon cancer cells.

Figure 2

(A,B) The average number of LS174T-EPHA3 (A) and DLD1-EPHA3 (B) cells and the corresponding empty vector control (EV) at the indicated times after seeding is shown (mean ± SEM of three independent experiments). (C,D) Number of colonies of LS174T-EPHA3 (C) and DLD1-EPHA3 (D) cells and the corresponding empty vector control (EV) grown on a solid plastic substrate (left), or on soft agar (right) with or without doxycycline treatment (1 μg/ml). The mean ( ±SEM) of three independent experiments run in triplicate is shown. (E,F) Growth of LS174T-EPHA3 (E) and DLD1-EPHA3 (F) cells when injected subcutaneously in immunodeficient NOD/SCID mice. Doxycycline was administered to the indicated groups of animals in the drinking water. The average tumor size ( ±SEM) is shown. N = 6 animals per group.
