PPARγ1 is over-expressed in various breast cancer cell lines as compared to HMEC. A. The representative Western blot of PPARγ1 expression. Whole cell lysates (40 μg of total protein) from nine different cell lines were analyzed by Western blot analysis as described in the methods section. B. Densitometry was used to quantify PPARγ1 expression. The chart represents data from the three different immunoblots (n = 3). Intensity of each band was normalized to actin. PPARγ1 expression is shown as a fold change in band intensity relative to HMEC. Statistical analysis was performed and demonstrated a significant difference in PPARγ1 expression in all tested cancer cell lines as compared to HMEC (p < 0.05).
