doi: 10.1016/j.celrep.2019.01.016
Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 6. Calcineurin Regulates Bmp2 Expression in the Endothelium, a Potent Inhibitor of Tumor Cell Growth (A) caNFATc1 induces the expression of DSRC1, BMP2, and TISSUEF in HUVECs. The qRT-PCR analyses of the indicated genes; n = 3, **p = 0.0091 DSCR1, *p = 0.0257 BMP2, and *p = 0.0318 TISSUEF. (B) Loss of calcineurin reduces the expression of Cnb1, Dscr1, and Bmp2 in the BEC-2 population of lung ECs. *p = 0.0316, **p = 0.0029; n = 3 Cnb1WT-GFP; n = 4 Cnb1Dbec. (C) BMP2 induces the phosphorylation of Smad-1/5 in B16F10 cells. Cells were treated with 100 ng/mL BMP2 in the presence or absence of 1 or 3 mM DMH1. Western blot for the indicated proteins. (D) BMP2 does not affect B16F10 cell growth in 2D. Cells were treated with vehicle or 100 ng/mL BMP2 for 24 and 48 h and analyzed by CyQuant DNA-based assay. (E) BMP2 reduces B16F10 cell growth in 3D. Representative images of B16F10 spheroids treated with 100 ng/mL BMP2, BMP2 + 3 mM DMH1, or vehicle.
