Rasenick, Takeshi Inagaki, Hiroshi Shibata3T3-L1 cells were transfected with non-targeting (siCont) or GEF-H1-targeting (siGEF-H1) siRNA (5 nmole, each) and cultured for 24 hours before stimulation with sucralose (Suc) for 2 hours. RhoA activity was measured by pull-down assay as described in Fig 4. Immunoblot data illustrate the amount of pull-downed GTP-bound RhoA and the amount of total RhoA, GEF-H1 and β-tubulin in the cell lysates.
