    <t>MEK5/ERK5</t> positively regulates the transcriptional activity of endogenous HH/GLI in melanoma cells. ( A ) Cells transduced with lentiviral vectors carrying control non-targeting shRNA (shNT) or human ERK5-specific shRNA (shERK5-1/shERK5-2) were transfected with pCS2 + MT (-) or pCS2 + MT-GLI1 and GLI-BS for 12 hours. Relative luciferase activity (RLU) was firefly/Renilla ratios normalized for control ± SD (n = 3). ( B ) Cells transfected as above were treated with vehicle (0) or XMD8-92 for 24 hours. RLU was firefly/Renilla ratios normalized for control ± SD (n = 3). ( C ) Cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1 (control) or pCMV5-MEK5DD-HA, lysed after 48 hours, and Western Blot was performed on total (Whole), cytoplasmic (Cyt) or nuclear (Nuc) extracts with the indicated antibodies. Graph shows quantification of nuclear GLI1. ( D ) HeLa cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1 (control) or pCMV5-MEK5DD-HA for 24 hours. Immunofluorescence analysis was performed by staining for HA (HA-MEK5DD, green) and GLI1 (red). Confocal images were analysed to quantify GLI1 nuclear staining, represented in the graph as nuclear Pearson’ Coefficient ± SD ( n = 3). ( E ) Cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1 (control) or pCMV5-MEK5DD-HA and with a GLI-BS for 12 h. RLU was firefly/Renilla ratios normalized for control ± SD ( n = 3). ( F ) Cells transfected as above were lysed after 48 h and GLI1, MEF2C and MEF2D mRNA levels were determined by Q-PCR. Data are presented as means ± SD ( n = 3)

    Combined targeting of MEK5 and GLI synergistically reduces the volume of melanoma spheroids. ( A - B ) A375 ( A ) and SSM2c ( B ) spheroids were treated with DMSO (-), GANT-61, GW284543 or BIX02189 or with the combinations at the indicated concentrations. Graphs show the quantification of spheroid volume after 5 days normalized for the time point 0. Data represent mean ± SD from three independent experiments. Representative images of spheroids taken at day 5 are shown. § Bliss independence score (> 0) indicates synergistic effects over single treatments. Bliss score = 0.027 (GANT + GW284543 ) or 0.008 (GANT + BIX02189) in A375 cells; Bliss score = 0.291 (GANT + GW284543 ) or 0.327 (GANT + BIX02189) in SSM2c cells
