To further characterize Slug as an EMT inducer in NSCLC cells after treatment with ERKi, we knocked down Slug expression in A549 and HCC827 cells, and analyzed expression of N-Cad after BVD treatment using flow cytometry, as well as expression of E-Cad and Vimentin using immunofluorescence. This evidence concerns the gene CDH2 and non-small cell lung carcinoma.
