Figure Lengend Snippet: Involvement of PKC δ in the reactivation of EGFR family members and downstream Akt and Erk signaling following prolonged c-Met TKI treatment. (A) H1993 cells were treated with SU11274 or 17-AAG for the indicated times and analyzed by immunoblotting using anti-PKC δ or anti-PKC δ (pS664) antibodies. Tubulin was used as a loading control. (B) H1993 cells were treated with SU1274 for 4 h (lane 2) or 48 h (lane 3–6). CI-1033 (1.5 μM, lane 4), rottlerin (10 μM, lane 5), or GO6976 (10 μM, lane 6) were added 4 hours before the cells were harvested. Untreated (lane 1) or treated cells were analyzed by immunobloting with the indicated antibodies. (C) H1993 cells were incubated continuously with DMSO (◆), CI-1033 (1.5 μM, ∎), SU11274 (2.5 μM, ▴), 17-AAG (0.5 μM, *), SU11274 and CI-1033 (◻), or SU11274 and rottlerin (1 μM, ▵). Cell density was monitored for 6 consecutive days by MTS assay. Each point represents the mean of 4 determinations; error bars, SD.
