Figure Lengend Snippet: mBH3@NPs preferentially induced mtApoptosis and immunogenic cell death in cancer cells (A) Flow cytometry analysis of cells positive for Annexin V and propidium iodide (PI) in cancer and non-cancer cell lines after treatment with PBS (control), NPs, naked Puma mRNA, and mPuma@NPs for 12 h ( n = 3). (B) Western blot analysis of mitochondrial apoptois pathway in CT-26 cells treated with control, NPs, mPuma@NPs, and mBim@NPs. Bax, Bcl-2, Bcl-x L , Mcl-1, caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3 (C-Cas3), caspase9, and cleaved caspase-9 (C-Cas9) proteins were detected. β-Actin was used as the loading control ( n = 3). (C) Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) images of the 5,5′,6,6′-tetrachloro-1,1′,3,3′-tetraethyl-imidacarbocyanine (JC-1) probe in CT-26 cells after treatment with PBS (control), NPs, mPuma@NPs, and mBim@NPs for 12 h. Increased JC-1 monomer signal (green) and decreased JC-1 aggregate signal (red) indicate a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential ( n = 3). Scale bars, 200 μm. (D) Flow cytometry analysis of cellular oxygen species (ROS) levels using 2,7-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) staining in CT-26 cells after 12 h incubation with PBS (control), NPs, naked mRNA, mPuma@NPs, and mBim@NPs ( n = 3). (E) CLSM images of CRT expression in B16-F10 and CT-26 cells after 12 h incubation with PBS (control), NPs, mPuma@NPs, and mBim@NPs ( n = 3). Scale bars, 20 μm. (F) Extracellular ATP and HMGB1 expression levels were analyzed by ELISA in B16-F10 cells after 12-h incubation with PBS (control), NPs, mPuma@NPs, and mBim@NPs ( n = 3). (G) Flow cytometry analysis and quantification of immune stimulation in BMDCs co-cultured with B16-F10 cells pretreated with PBS (control), NPs, mPuma@NPs, and mBim@NPs for 12 h, followed by 48-h co-culture ( n = 3). One-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test was used for all statistical analyses. Data are presented as the mean ± SD. ∗ p < 0.05; ∗∗ p < 0.01; ∗∗∗ p < 0.001; NS, not significant.

doi: 10.1016/j.isci.2026.115273

Figure Lengend Snippet: CGF’s effect on cell cycle and apoptosis in CRC (A) Flow cytometry was used to analyze how CGF affects the cell cycle of HCT116 and HT29 cells at certain concentrations, with the percentage of cells in G1, S, and G2 phases shown in each panel. (B) Western blot analysis of the changes in cell cycle-related proteins CDK1, p-CDK1, and cyclin B1 in HCT116 and HT29 cells after CGF treatment. (C) RT-qPCR analysis of the relative expression levels of PUMA and NOXA genes in HCT116 and HT29 cells treated with different concentrations of CGF. (D) Western blot analysis of the changes in apoptosis-related proteins BCL2, PUMA, Noxa, C-caspase 9, and C-caspase 3 in HCT116 and HT29 cells after CGF treatment. (E) Flow cytometry was used to analyze apoptosis in HCT116 and HT29 cells treated with CGF. On the left is a representative plot showing apoptosis, utilizing Annexin V-FITC and PI double staining.

Figure Lengend Snippet: The effect of CGF-induced ROS on the MAPK/ERK 1/2/c-MYC signaling pathway (A) Western blotting was used to analyze the expression of MEK, P-MEK, ERK 1/2, P-ERK 1/2, and c-MYC proteins in HCT116 and HT29 cells after treatment with specified CGF concentrations. (B) Immunofluorescence staining of HCT116 and HT29 cells after CGF treatment, showing changes in p-ERK (green). PMA was used to promote nuclear entry of p-ERK (200 nM, 4 h), and DAPI was used to stain the nucleus (blue), with merged images shown (scale bars, 10 μM). (C) Western blot was used to analyze the levels of MEK, P-MEK, ERK 1/2, P-ERK 1/2, and c-MYC proteins in HCT116 and HT29 cells following treatment with CGF (40 μM, 24 h) and NAC (500 μM, 24 h).
