Figure 3


Fig. 3. PPAR{gamma} activation increases p16 protein levels in 2BS and WI-38 cells. 2BS and WI-38 cells were transfected with the expression plasmids pcDNA3.1 (vector), pcDNA3.1-PPAR{gamma} (PPAR{gamma}), pSilencer 2.1-U6 neo (RNAi vector) or pSilencer-PPAR{gamma} (siPPAR{gamma}) and treated, as indicated, with 20 µM troglitazone or DMSO (vehicle) for 72 hours. (A) Western blot analysis of PPAR{gamma} and p16INK4{alpha} expression in vector-transfected or PPAR{gamma}-transfected cells. (B) Western blot analysis of PPAR{gamma} and p16INK4{alpha} expression in RNAi-vector-transfected or siPPAR{gamma}-transfected cells. Western blotting was performed using specific antibodies against PPAR{gamma} and p16INK4{alpha} as indicated. The β-actin lane served as a loading control.
