Impact on Autophagy and Ultraviolet B Induced Responses of Treatment with the MTOR Inhibitors Rapamycin, Everolimus, Torin 1, and pp242 in Human Keratinocytes
Figure 4
HaCaT cells were treated with or without 50 mJ/cm2 UVB and then incubated in the presence or absence of 20 nM Rapamycin (a), 100 nM everolimus (b), 1 μM Torin 1 (c), or 1 μM pp242 (d) for 12 hours. Western blotting was performed using primary antibodies against MTOR, phospho-Ser2448 or Ser2481 MTOR, p70 S6 kinase, phospho-Thr389 or Ser371 p70 S6 kinase, S6 ribosomal protein, phospho-Ser240/244 or Ser235/236 S6 ribosomal protein, 4E-BP1, phospho-Thr37/46 or Ser65 4E-BP1, ULK1, phospho-Ser555 or Ser757 ULK1, Rictor, phospho-Thr1135 Rictor, SGK1, phospho-Ser78 SGK1, Akt, and phospho-Ser473 Akt. GAPDH served as a loading control. Representative figures were exhibited from three independent experiments.
