(a) DLD1 cells expressing FOXO3(A3)-ER were stimulated with 4-OHT with or without MSO. After 24 h, the cells were starved of serum, amino acids and glucose in D-PBS containing the indicated inhibitors and stimulated with amino acids for 10 min. Cell lysates were analysed for protein levels of phospho-S6K (Thr 389) and actin. Shown are representative blots of three independent experiments.
