Figure Lengend Snippet: CRC cells with JAML overexpression demonstrate increased apoptosis and DNA damage after irradiation, accompanied by inhibiting the ATR-CHK1 signaling pathway. (A) Representative images of apoptosis of LOVO and DLD-1 cells using flow cytometry after 24 h after X-ray irradiation. (B and C) Quantitative statistics of apoptosis of LOVO and DLD-1 cells. (D) Representative images of fluorescence of γH2AX in LOVO and DLD-1 cells after 12 h of X-ray irradiation or lack of X-ray irradiation. (E and F) Quantitative statistical analysis of the γH2AX-positive rate in LOVO and DLD-1 cells. (G and L) Western blot images of the ATR-CHK1 signaling pathway’s protein expression in LOVO and DLD-1 cells after 24 h of X-ray irradiation/lack of irradiation. (H–K and M−P) Quantitative statistical analysis of the relative ATR-CHK1 signaling pathway’s protein expression in LOVO and DLD-1 cells (*, P ≤ 0.05; **, P ≤ 0.01; ***, P ≤ 0.001; and ****, P ≤ 0.0001).
