The effect of silencing carbonic anhydrase I (CA I) on the PC3 prostate cancer cell morphology and expression. (A) A light‐microscope image of PC3 cells 48 hrs after siCA1 transfection compared to PC3 cells transfected with Mock siRNA. Magnification 100x. (B) Gene expression analysis of silenced CA1 gene and selected genes responsible for basal lamina assembly (COL1A1—collagen type I alpha 1, COL4A4—collagen type IV alpha 4, LAMC2—laminin subunit gamma 2, CTHRC1—collagen triple helix repeat containing 1, WNT7B—Wingless‐Type MMTV Integration Site Family, Member 7B); reverse transcriptase quantitative PCR (RT‐qPCR). (C) Western blot analysis indicating reduced amount of CA I protein after CA1 mRNA silencing. Beta‐actin was used as a loading control.
