Figure Lengend Snippet: A, B . shScr, shOGT, and shOGA were induced for 48 h with 1 μg/ml doxycycline and cells were treated with 0 or 10 μM veliparib for 1 h prior to 6 Gy, fixed after 24 h and stained for BRCA1. Shown are representative images ( A ) and plots of BRCA1 foci per nucleus ( B ). C, D . Cells were treated as in A and stained for RPA. Shown are representative images ( C ) and plots of RPA foci per nucleus ( D ). E . shScr, shOGT, and shOGA cells were treated as in A and then lightly permeabilized, fixed and then stained with anti-DNA to detect cytosolic DNA (cytoDNA). Shown are representative pseudo-colored images, with cytoDNA in red, DAPI counterstain in blue, and overlays. For images, scale bar = 20 μm; inset is mean ± SEM foci per nucleus. For plots, red bars indicate mean ± SEM; ****, P < 0.0001; ***, P < 0.001; **, P < 0.01; *, P < 0.05; ns, P > 0.05 (unpaired t-test).
