Ectopic activation of ARHGAP8 in melanoma promotes cell motility
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: ARHGAP8 was expressed at negligible levels in normal melanocytes but was ectopically activated in approximately 10% of melanoma specimens and melanoma cell lines. ARHGAP8 was ectopically expressed in ARHGAP8-negative M14 melanoma cells using the pIRES2 vector (Clontech), producing a bicistronic ARHGAP8-ires-eGFP mRNA. M14 cells stably transfected with vector control or N-terminally FLAG-tagged ARHGAP8 were cultured in 2D or 3D embedded growth conditions and then subjected to gene expression profiling using Affymetrix U133_Plus_2 gene chips.
