FIGURE 6.  Results of regression analysis using real-time mRNA data and 3H-FDG uptake per cell: untreated vs. glut-1 (A), untreated vs. HKII (B), DOX vs. glut-1 (C), DOX vs. HKII (D), 5FU vs. glut-1 (E), and 5FU vs. HKII (F). y-Axis represents percentage of baseline expression of mRNA; x-axis represents percentage of baseline 3H-FDG uptake.

FIGURE 7.  Western blot analysis of total protein extractions from untreated and DOX- and 5FU-treated MCF-7 cells. Comparable amounts of total protein are loaded in each lane, as shown by ß-actin. HKII protein rises in untreated cells and falls in treated cells. Glut-1 protein levels change less than does mRNA. UNT = untreated.
