Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of recombinant ShhN treatment on Gli1 mRNA expression in pancreatic CAFs. (a) Gli1 mRNA levels were assessed 24 hours after treatment of CAF27 cells with indicated concentrations of recombinant ShhN. (b) Comparison of ShhN treatment in control pancreatic fibroblasts and pancreatic CAFs. Gli1 mRNA levels were assessed 24 hours after treatment of HPNE, SC2, or CAF cells with indicated concentrations of recombinant ShhN. Relative Gli1 mRNA levels after normalization to the corresponding 18S rRNA levels are shown. Data are means of four independent experiments; bars are SD values.
Article Snippet: The cells were incubated for 24 hours in low-serum medium (DMEM + 0.5% FBS) containing 0, 0.5, 1.0, or 2.5 μg/mL recombinant human sonic hedgehog (ShhN) ligand (1845-SH, R&D Systems, Inc.).
