Down-regulation of Gli1 expression and transcriptional activity after treatment with CX-4945. (A) Cell proliferation assay after treatment with CX-4945. (B) Dose-dependent decrease in Gli reporter activity in H28. The decrease was 47% in the presence of 3 μM CX-4945 or 70% in the presence of 10 μM CX-4945. TBB was used as a positive control. (C) Dose-dependent decrease of Gli1 mRNA after treatment with CX-4945. Gli1 expression decreased noticeably at the dosage levels of 3 μM in H2052 or 10 μM in H28, and decreased to minimal at 10 μM in H2052.
