Figure Lengend Snippet: A . Western blots showing levels of pERK, total ERK, pAKT, total AKT, non-phospho-β-catenin, total β-catenin, LC3A/B, cleaved PARP, and cleaved caspase 3 in 2838c3- f -luc tumors after vehicle or ADT-030 treatment. B-G . Bar graphs representing the quantifications of western blots from panel A: pERK ( B ), p-AKT ( C ), non-phospho-β-catenin ( D ), LC3A/B ( E ), cleaved PARP ( F ), and cleaved caspase 3 ( G ) in tumor tissues after ADT-030 vs. vehicle treatments. Welch t -test was used for statistical analysis. H . The inhibitory effect of ADT-030 on activated (GTP-bound) RAS in tumors after vehicle or ADT-030 treatments was assessed by RAS-RBD pull-down assay. I . Representative Ki-67 IHC results in tumors after vehicle or ADT-030 treatment. J-L . Representative IF images of LC3A/B (J) , vimentin (K) , and E-Cadherin (L) in tumors after vehicle or ADT-030 treatment. M . Bar graph representing the quantification of IHC staining for KI-67. N-P . Dot-plot graphs representing the IF quantifications of LC3A/B (N) , vimentin (O) , and E-Cadherin (P) in tumors after vehicle or ADT-030 treatment. Welch t-test was used for statistical analysis. ns, non-significant, ∗p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, and ∗∗∗∗p < 0.0001.
