Effects of Akt inhibition on Snail1, SIP-1/ZEB-2, and Twist expression and localization. (A) Downregulation of Snail and Twist was detected in KB and KOSCC-25B cells by immunoblot and RT-PCR analysis. In contrast, inhibition of Akt activity by PIA did not induce any changes in SIP-1/ZEB-2 mRNA and protein expression. (B) A shift from the nucleus to the cytoplasm of Snail and Twist in KOSCC-25B cells was detected by immunofluorescence analysis.
