Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of AZA + VAL or DEC + VAL combinations on CiDEA, MAL and PCDH17 protein expression in CLBL-1 cells. ( A ) Whole protein lysates from treated and untreated cells were subjected to immunoblotting, using GAPDH as the loading control. The image is representative of six independent experiments (independent cell cultures). MCF7, HepG2 and MDCK cell lines as well as CF2Th cells transfected with canine CiDEA and MAL full sequences have been used as positive controls (human and canine). Thirty and ~15 µg of total proteins were loaded in each well for the positive controls and CLBL-1 cells, respectively. ( B ) For the protein quantification of each sample, the integrated optical density (IOD) of the specific bands was normalized first to the corresponding GAPDH IOD and subsequently to the canine positive control, selected as the calibrator (CF2Th_CiDEA for CiDEA, CF2Th_MAL for MAL and MDCK for PCDH17). The results of the densitometric analysis are expressed in arbitrary units (AU) as the mean ± SEM of six independent experiments (independent cell cultures). Statistical analysis: Mann Whitney U-test (*: p < 0.05). L: ladder.
Article Snippet: Cf2Th canine normal thymus cell line obtained from European Collection of Authenticated Cell Cultures (ECACC, Porton Down, UK, Ref No. 90110521) was used for the heterologous transfection.
