Expression of dominant active Gα12 in MDA-MB-231 cells induces secretion of cytokines IL-6 andIL-8, and MMP-2. (A) Protein array analysis of factors present in conditioned media. MDA-MB-231 cells were transfected either with control vector (Mock) or Gα12QL as indicated. Following a 72 h incubation period, media was harvested and subject to antibody-based arrays; see Methods for details. (B) Enlarged areas of the indicated regions of the arrays shown in (A). Quantification of data from three arrays is shown in (C). Bars represent the mean ± S.E. of quadruplicate determinations; IL-6 (p = 0.007), IL-8 (p = 0.003), MMP-2 (p = 0.007).
