Fig. 9. Production of secretory proteins in Fgfr2cn
prostates remained androgen dependent. (A) Profiles of secretory
proteins. The PBS-extracted proteins from the dlp of 2-month-old mice were
separated on 5-20% gradient SDS-PAGE and stained with Coomassie Brilliant Blue
G250. (B) Expression of probasin and PSP94 in
Fgfr2cn prostates. The PBS-extracted proteins from
castrated or uncastrated mice were separated on SDS-PAGE and were western
blotted with anti-probasin and anti-PSP94 antibodies, as indicated. (C)
Total RNA was extracted from adult Fgfr2cn and control
prostates, and expression of probasin and PSP94 was determined by real-time
RT-PCR. Expression levels were normalized to ß-actin loading controls.
The expression of each gene in control prostates was set to 1. Data are
mean±s.d. of three independent experiments. F/F, homozygous
Fgfr2flox mice; CN, Fgfr2cn mice.
