Reduction in PKCε protein. (A) Representative Western blot showing the amount of PKCε and actin expressed in protein samples prepared from luteal steroidogenic cells after 48, 72, and 96 h of transfection with PKCε specific siRNA (lanes 1–3). Lanes labeled 4 – 6, contained protein samples from indicated control treatments (media, Non-sp siRNA, and transfection reagent, respectively). (B) Semi-quantitative analysis of the densitometry derived from four experiments similar to the one shown in panel A. the y-axis shows the ratio of the optical density ratio of PKCε to that of its corresponding β-actin. The data are shown as mean ± SEM, and comparisons were made between different treatments. Values with different letters denote differences by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey-Kramer honestly significant difference (P < 0.05).
