Effects of the expression levels of phosphorylated AKT (P-AKT) and phosphorylated STAT3 (P-STAT3) proteins on siRNA-mediated inhibition of ANO1 for 72 hr in MDA-MB-453 cells (A, B) and siRNA-mediated inhibition of ClC-3 for 72 hr in YMB-1 cells (C, D). Immunoblotting was performed as shown in Figure 7. After compensation, the ratio of P-AKT to AKT or P-STAT3 to STAT3 in si-cont was expressed as 1.0 (n=4 for each).
