Figure Lengend Snippet: EEF1D Knockdown inhibits Akt-mTOR and Akt-Bad signaling pathways in osteosarcoma cells. a , b MNNG/HOS and U2OS cell extracts were prepared and analyzed using PathScan® intracellular signaling array kit. Images were captured with Odyssey® Infrared Imaging System (LI-COR). c , d Quantification of results from MNNG/HOS and U2OS cells shown in ( a , b ) e , f Western blotting analysis of Akt-mTOR and Akt-Bad signaling pathway molecules in MNNG/HOS and U2OS cells transfected with nonspecific control siRNA (si-NC) or EEF1D siRNA (si-EEF1D). g Western blotting analysis of Akt-mTOR and Akt-Bad signaling pathway molecules, including mTOR, Akt, and Bad, in hFOB 1.19 cells transfected with pcDNA 3.1 or pcDNA 3.1-EEF1D. Quantification of results in ( e , f , g ) were shown in ( h , i and j ) respectively
Article Snippet: Human EEF1D siRNA (si-EEF1D) and a nonspecific control siRNA (si-NC) were synthesized by RiboBio (Guangzhou, China). pcDNA 3.1 and pcDNA 3.1-EEF1D were synthesized by Bioworld (Nanjing, China).
