Silencing of Receptor Tyrosine Kinase ROR1 Inhibits Tumor-Cell Proliferation via PI3K/AKT/mTOR Signaling Pathway in Lung Adenocarcinoma
Fig 2
Blocking ROR1 via siRNA inhibited tumor cell growth and induced apoptosis.
(A-C) PC9, XLA-07, and NCI-H1975 were treated with ROR1 siRNA (siROR1) or control siRNA (siControl) for 72 h and examined for ROR1 protein expression with chimeric rabbit/human anti-ROR1 monoclonal antibody R12 by flow cytometry (A), growth-inhibition by MTS assay (B) and apoptosis induction by Annexin-V/PI staining (C). The height of each bar in the graph B provides the mean number of viable cells that are representative of more than three independent experiments. *** p<0.001, ** p<0.01 by Student’s t test.
