Loss of RASSF2 Enhances Tumorigencity of Lung Cancer Cells and Confers Resistance to Chemotherapy

Figure 4

Loss of RASSF2 decreases cell adhesion and enhances invasion. (a) The H441 control cells and those stably knocked down for RASSF2 were assayed for adhesion as described in Section 2. *Statistically different ( ) from control cells. (b) The cells were assayed for their ability to invade a collagen matrix as described in Section 2. A statistically larger number of cells ( ) that were stably knocked down for RASSF2 were able to migrate through the collagen compared to control cells, indicating that loss of RASSF2 enhances cell invasion.
