Effects of α-adrenoreceptor antagonists on apoptosis and proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells in vitro

Figure 1 Expression of mRNA in adrenoceptors of human ductal pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines PC-2 and PC-3 by RT-PCR. Lanes 1-8 represent the α_1D-, α_1A-, α_2A-, α_2B-, α_2C-, α_1B-, β₁-, and β₂-adrenoceptor subtypes, respectively. Lane maker = 100 bp DNA ladder. PC-2 expressed mRNA in α_1D-, α_1A-, α_2A-, β₁-, and β₂-adrenoceptors and PC-3 expressed mRNA in α_2B-, β₁-, and β₂-adrenoceptors.
