Figure Legend Snippet: (A-D) Venn diagrams of differentially expressed genes in FaDu (A-B) and 2A3 (C-D) cell lines. Venn diagrams illustrate the number of significantly regulated genes under three conditions: hypoxia (green), irradiation (yellow), and the combination of hypoxia and irradiation (blue). Numbers in the overlapping areas indicate genes commonly regulated under the corresponding conditions. Genes were considered differentially expressed if they had an adjusted p-value (padj) <0.1. (E) Biological processes differentially regulated in FaDu and 2A3 HNSCC cell lines under hypoxia and combined hypoxia with gamma irradiation. The figure illustrates biological processes significantly upregulated (red) or downregulated (green) in FaDu and 2A3 cells in response to hypoxia alone or in combination with gamma radiation. The analysis was performed using the WebGestalt 2024 platform and included only genes that were consistently detected across all three independent biological replicates and met the inclusion criteria of adjusted p < 0.1 and |log 2 FC| ≥ 2.
Techniques Used: Irradiation
Figure Legend Snippet: (A) FaDu, 2A3, and Detroit-562 cell lines were cultured under normoxic (21% O 2 ) or hypoxic (1% O 2 ) conditions. Cell numbers were determined 48 and 72 hours after plating, and doubling times were calculated as described in Methods. Data represent the mean ± SD from four independent experiments (n = 4). Statistical analysis was performed using an unpaired t-test (**p < 0.01). (B) Heatmap of the top 20 DEGs. Averaged data from three independent experiments are shown. The color bar is showing the values of z-score for each gene after library size normalization via DESeq2 software. Cell cycle distribution was analyzed 24 hours after 6 Gy gamma-irradiation in (C) FaDu, (D) 2A3, and (E) Detroit-562 cells cultured under normoxic or hypoxic (1% O 2 ) conditions. Results are presented as the percentage of cells in G0/1, S, or G2/M phases. Data represent the mean ± SD from three independent experiments (n = 3). Statistical analysis was performed using two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
Techniques Used: Cell Culture, Software, Irradiation
Figure Legend Snippet: (A) Cleaved caspase-3 levels in FaDu, 2A3, and Detroit-562 cells cultured under normoxic (21% O 2 ) or hypoxic (1% O 2 ) conditions, assessed 48 hours after 6 Gy gamma-irradiation. Results are shown as fold change relative to non-irradiated normoxic controls. Data represent mean ± SD from three independent experiments (n = 3). Statistical analysis: two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. (B) Heatmap of the top 20 DEGs. Averaged data from three independent experiments are shown. The color bar is showing the values of z-score for each gene after library size normalization via DESeq2 software. (C) Representative western blots of N-cadherin, E-cadherin, and vimentin in FaDu and 2A3 cells. (D) Quantification of protein levels expressed as mean optical density (O.D.) ± SD, normalized to β-actin, in FaDu and 2A3 cells under normoxic or hypoxic conditions. (E–G) Effects of hypoxia and irradiation on N-cadherin, E-cadherin, and vimentin levels in FaDu and 2A3 cells under normoxic and hypoxic conditions. Data represent mean ± SD from three independent experiments (n = 3). Statistical analysis: unpaired t-test (*p < 0.05).

Figure Legend Snippet: (A) Heatmap of the top 20 DEGs. Averaged data from three independent experiments are shown. The color bar is showing the values of z-score for each gene after library size normalization via DESeq2 software. (B) Cytokine/chemokine production in response to hypoxia, gamma-irradiation, and their combination. Conditioned media from FaDu, 2A3, and Detroit-562 cells were collected 48 hours after gamma-irradiation under normoxic or hypoxic conditions. Media from three independent experiments per cell line were pooled for analysis. Results are presented as z-scores of log 10 -transformed normalized data. n.d. = not detected. (C) Cell numbers of FaDu, 2A3, and Detroit-562 cultured under normoxic (21% O 2 ) or hypoxic (1% O 2 ) conditions, assessed 48 hours after 6 Gy gamma-irradiation. Data represent mean ± SD from four independent experiments (n = 4). Statistical analysis: two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. Levels of IL-8 (D), MIF (E), and Serpin E1 (F) in supernatants from FaDu, 2A3, and Detroit-562 cells cultured under normoxic or hypoxic conditions, assessed 48 hours after gamma-irradiation. Concentrations were normalized to cell numbers per condition. Data represent mean ± SD from three to four independent experiments (n = 3–4). Statistical analysis: two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
