Shedding of CSPG4 ectodomain after exposure of melanoma cells to BRAF inhibitor. WM9, WM35, 451Lu and WM164 cells were exposed to 250 nM PLX4032 for 14 days. (A) Medium from cultured cells was collected at indicated time points and analyzed for CSPG4 (130 kDa) expression by western blotting. (B) Spearman's correlation analysis between cell-based CSPG4 expression levels with CSPG4 ectodomain shedding levels. The results are presented as the relative expression of CSPG4 in PLX4032-exposed cells compared to the CSPG4 expression in parental cells which was set to 100%.
