(a,b) 2DG-FTOC were cultured for 4 days in the presence of CYR61-Fc. Scale bar 1 mm. Cell numbers were quantified by flow cytometry. Data±s.e.m. are representative of three independent experiments. (c) IT76M1 cells were cultured in the presence or absence of CYR61-Fc for the indicated times. Cell numbers were determined by flow cytometry. Data are the mean of three experiments ±s.e.m. (d) The percentage of proliferating Ki67+ IT76M1 after 72 h of treatment with CYR61-Fc was quantified by flow cytometry. Data are the mean of two experiments±s.d. **P≤0.01; ***P≤0.001 (two-tailed unpaired Student’s t-test).
