Fig. 6

a Drug combination of AMPC and MEK1/2 inhibitors. H1975 cells were seeded in 96-well plate and treated with AMPC, CI-1040/trametinib or the combination at different concentrations for 48 h. Fold change in cell viability is plotted. b Western blot analysis of p-ERK and ERK protein levels in cell lysates of H1975 treated with AMPC, CI-1040/Trametinib alone or the combination for 24 h. The levels of the total ERK was used as an input control. c Combination index (CI) and dose-reduction index (DRI) plots of AMPC and CI-1040/trametinib combination treatment in H1975 cells. d CI and DRI values at ED50, ED75, and ED90 of AMPC and CI-1040/trametinib combination treatment in H1975 cells. e 3D Matrigel growth. H1975 cells were seeded in 5% FBS media containing 4% Matrigel and allowed to form colonies for 4 days prior to treatment with AMPC, CI-1040/trametinib or the combination for 7 days. Fold change in cell viability is plotted. Representative microscopic images of colonies formed by H1975 cells treated with AMPC, CI-1040/trametinib or the combination in 3D matrigel. Scale bar: 100 μm
