Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Western Blot to detect the expression of MUC2 after the cells were treated with different concentrations of KLF4 inhibitor Kenpaullone (0uM, 0.5uM, 1uM, 2.5uM, 5uM) for 24 hours. (B-C) IHC staining and quantitation of KLF4 in the CRC patients (n=31, normal tissue; n=31, tumor tissue). Scale bars, 50 µm. (D-E) ChIP enrichment was quantified using qPCR and PCR analysis to detect MUC2-binding site (n=3, Input; n=3, IgG; n=3, CHIP-KLF4). (F) The above plasmids and pCMV-Renilla plasmid were co-transfected into LOVO cells, and the normalized luciferase activity was measured (n=5, Ctrl; n=5, WT; n=5, mut). (G-H) ChIP enrichment was quantified using qPCR and PCR analysis to detect B3GNT6-binding sites (n=3, Input; n=3, IgG; n=3, CHIP-KLF4). (I) The above plasmids and pCMV-Renilla plasmid were co-transfected into LOVO cells, and the normalized luciferase activity was measured (n=5, Ctrl; n=5, WT; n=5, mut1; n=5, mut2; n=5, mut12).Data were analyzed by ordinary one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons. The error bars indicate means ±standard error (SEM). *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001. ANOVA, analysis of variance; qPCR, quantitative polymerase chain reaction; ChIP, chromatin immunoprecipitation; CRC, Colorectal Cancer.
