GLUT1 and IGFBP3 are tumor suppressive HRGs in 786-O cells.
A. Lysates from 786-O cells stably expressing VHL, the SCR or the GLUT1 shRNAs were prepared and immunoblotted with indicated antibodies. B. 786-O VHL-/- cells infected to produce SCR or GLUT1-2310 were injected subcutaneously into the flanks of nude mice. Approximately 8-10 weeks later, tumors were excised and weighed. Eight tumors per line were analyzed. Error bars = standard error of the mean. P<=0.001 according to a Mann-Whitney U statistic analysis. C. Representative photographs of tumors analyzed in Figure 5B. Left: Tumor from cells expressing SCR; Right: Tumor from cells expressing GLUT1-2310. D. Total cell lysates of 786-O cells stably expressing VHL, the SCR or the IGFBP3 shRNAs were immunoblotted with the indicated antibodies. E. 786-O VHL-/- cells infected to produce SCR or IGFBP3-711 were injected subcutaneously into the flanks of nude mice. Approximately 8-10 weeks later, tumors were excised and weighed. Ten tumors per line were analyzed. Error bars = standard error of the mean. P<=0.001 according to a Mann-Whitney U statistic analysis. F. Representative photographs of tumors analyzed in Figure 5E. Left: Tumor from cells expressing SCR; Right: Tumor from cells expressing IGFBP3-711.
