A Activated proteins in HT1080 monolayers and spheroids identified by human phospho-kinase array kit. B Western blot for indicated proteins following transduction with sh.Akt1/2 or sh.Scr in sarcoma spheroid cells. C CD133 (green) and Nanog (red) immunofluorescence with and DAPI (blue) counterstaining following treatment with PI3K inhibitor LY294002 or sh.Akt1/2 in spheroid cells. D Diameter of spheroids grown from single CD133+ cell cells showing following treatment with LY294002 or sh.Akt1/2 vs, DMSO or sh.Scr, respectively. E Proliferation of spheroid cells following treatment with sh.Akt1/2 and doxorubicin or 6 Gy radiation. β-Actin, loading control. Scale bar, 50 µm. *p < 0.01 compared to control.
