a Transwell migration assay showing increase of cell migration in HCT116 overexpressing TAGLN in response to 10% FBS attractant. Effects of TAGLN depletion on HT-29 (b) and RKO (c) cell migration using transwell migration system. d Effect of exogenous TGFβ (10 ng/mL) and TGFβ inhibition using SB431542 (10 µM) on RKO cell migration using the transwell migration system. Effects of TAGLN depletion (e) and exogenous TGFβ (10 ng/mL) and TGFβ inhibition using SB431542 (10 µM) (f) on RKO cell migration using wound-healing assay. Time-lapse microscopy was conducted using EVOS FL Auto Cell Imaging System where images were taken every 30 min over 4 days. g Subcutaneous tumor formation of control (siControl) and TAGLN-depleted (siTAGLN) RKO cells in nude mice. Data are presented as mean (tumor volume) ± S.E., n = 5 per group. Representative tumors at the end of experiment is shown (upper panel).
