From: The new 6q27 tumor suppressor DACT2, frequently silenced by CpG methylation, sensitizes nasopharyngeal cancer cells to paclitaxel and 5-FU toxicity via β-catenin/Cdc25c signaling and G2/M arrest

Overexpressed DACT2 induced G2/M cell cycle arrest and promote cell apoptosis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. a, b The effect of DACT2 on cell cycle in vector- and DACT2-expressing HNE1 and HONE1 cells was detected by flow cytometry analysis. Representative flow cytometry plots (a) and the histogram statistics of cell cycle changes (b). c, BrdU-ELISA assay at 24 h in vector- or DACT2-transfected HNE1 and HONE1 cells. d, e The proportion of apoptotic cells was detected in vector- and DACT2-expressing HNE1 and HONE1 cells by flow cytometry analysis. Representative flow cytometry plots (d) and the histogram statistics of apoptosis changes (e)
