Figure 3

MGMT is downregulated in immortalized and transformed NHA cells. (A) The expression of MGMT mRNA in NHA (parental; lane 1), NHA/T (lane 2), NHA/TS (lane 3), NHA/TSR (lane 4), and NHA/TSRA cells (lane 5) were analyzed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The levels in flank xenografts derived from the NHA/TSR and NHA/TSRA cells were also tested (lanes 6 and 7). (B) Protein extracts (10 μg) from NHA (lanes 1–4) and TIG3 cells (lanes 5–7) infected with retroviral vectors expressing indicated genes (T, hTERT: S, SV40ER: R, H-RasV12; A; myrAKT) were analyzed by immunoblotting.
