Figure Lengend Snippet: a acRIP-qPCR analysis of ac 4 C levels in the CDS domain of DYRK1A among control, H-Sen, and D-Sen NCM460 cells. n = 3 independent experiments. Data were represented as mean ± SD. b DYRK1A mRNA expression and protein expression in control, H-Sen, and D-Sen NCM460 cells. n = 3 independent experiments. Data were represented as mean ± SD. c Immunofluorescence staining of DAPI, γ-H2AX, and DYRK1A in control, H-Sen, and D-Sen NCM460 cells. Scale bar for immunofluorescence, 20 μm. d Immunoblotting of NAT10 after NAT10-RIP assay with cell lysate among control, H-Sen, and D-Sen NCM460 cells. qPCR analysis of the CDS domain of DYRK1A was performed after NAT10-RIP. n = 3 independent experiments. Data were represented as mean ± SD. e DYRK1A mRNA stability was measured by adding actinomycin D in control, H-Sen, D-Sen NCM460 cells and in H-Sen and D-Sen NCM460 cells with NAT10 knockdown. n = 3 independent experiments. Data were represented as mean ± SD. f Sucrose gradient fractionation of H-Sen NCM460 cells and H-Sen NCM460 cells with NAT10 knockdown. Relative DYRK1A mRNA abundance across the polysome fraction was quantified by RT-qPCR. n = 3 independent experiments. Data were represented as mean ± SD. g Analysis of SA-Gal activity in DYRK1A-reexpressed NCM460 cells after transfected with NAT10 siRNA and treated with H 2 O 2 or DOX. Scale bar for SA-Gal, 100 µm. h qPCR analysis of IL-1β and IL-6 in DYRK1A-reexpressed NCM460 cells after transfected with NAT10 siRNA and treated with H 2 O 2 or DOX. n = 3 independent experiments. Data were represented as mean ± SD. i Western blot of NAT10, DYRK1A, γ-H2AX, and p21 in DYRK1A-reexpressed cells after transfected with NAT10-Si and treated with H 2 O 2 or DOX. j Caspase3/7 activity analysis in DYRK1A-reexpressed H-Sen and D-Sen NCM460 cells after transfected with NAT10-Si. n = 3 independent experiments. Data were represented as mean ± SD. Two-way ANOVA analysis with Tukey’s multiple comparison was used for ( e ). Two-tailed unpaired Student’s t test was used for other analyses ( a , b , d , e , f , g , h , j ). *** p < 0.001, ** p < 0.01, * p < 0.05. Source data and exact p -value are provided as a Source data file.
Article Snippet: The colon epithelial cell line NCM460 (Cellosaurus, #305430, RRID: CVCL_0460) was cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (GIBCO, Waltham, MA, USA), and the finite colon cell line CCD841 (ATCC, CRL-1790, RRID: CVCL_2871) was maintained in Eagle’s minimum essential medium (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA).
