Correlation of CAR expression and CRAd-induced tumor inhibition in breast cancer cell lines. (a) CAR inhibition via stable transfection of CAR-siRNA diminished its protein expression in cisplatin resistant cells. (b) Ectopic CAR expression through full-length human CAR cDNA raised CAR protein levels in cisplatin sensitive cells. (c) CAR knockdown in resistant cells, MCF-7/R and M-231/R significantly reduces the CRAd-induced tumor inhibition. (d) CAR overexpression significantly increases the CRAd-induced tumor inhibition in sensitive cells, MCF-7 and M-231. The data shown in (c,d) are the average of triplicate experiments. Data are presented as the mean ± SD (n = 3), *p < 0.05 by two-tailed Student’s t test. Uncropped blots are shown in the supplementary information (See Supplementary Data, Fig. S3).
