Supplementary Figure 1: Lentiviral shRNA mediated knockdown or ectopic expression of
GPR81.
(A) Relative mRNA expression of GPR81 in Capan-II cells following lentiviral stable knockdown of
GPR81 (shGPR81) or lentiviral control (shControl). Results are the mean ± SEM, normalized to
shControl. n ≥ 3. ***p<0.001; ****p<0.0001 by ANOVA.
(B) shControl (top) or shGPR81 (bottom) Capan-II cells were coimmunostained for GPR81 (red) and
DAPI (blue). Scale bar, 200μm. n ≥ 3.
(C) Quantification of GPR81 protein levels, normalized to shControl. Data are mean ± SEM. n ≥ 3.
