Western blot analysis was performed on cell lysates collected from the siRNA transfections and the luciferase assay. Twenty micrograms of the cell lysates were run on a 4–15% Criterion TGX Precast gel (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) for two hours at 120V. Transferred proteins were probed with both a Fli-1 polyclonal antibody described previously [37 (link)] and an antibody to β-actin (Cell Signaling, Beverly, MA). The results were visualized using the Odyssey Imaging System (LI-COR, Lincoln, NE).
