Fig. 1. HPV-16 E7 oncoprotein drives p63 expression in cervical cancer cell lines.

a Total protein was extracted from normal cervix tissue, HPV-negative cervical cancer cell line C33A and two HPV16-positive cervical cancer cell lines SiHa and CaSki. Expression levels of E7 and p63 were assessed by western blotting. b Western blot analysis of E6 and E7 was carried out 48 h after transfection in CaSki cells to test the specificity and efficiency of the siRNAs. c and d p63 protein levels were measured 48 h following E7-depletion c or E6-depletion d in CaSki cells by western blotting. In all western blots GAPDH was used as equal loading control
