    SHBs is symmetrically dimethylated at arginine 169. (A–C) Huh7 and <t>HepG2</t> cells were transfected with plasmids encoding SHBs–Strep–Flag or Strep–Flag control. Strep pull–down (IP:Strep) was performed, followed by Western blot (WB) with antibodies against (A) monomethylarginine (MMA), (B) asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), or (C) symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA). SHBs in the IP fraction and SHBs/β–actin in input lysates are shown as controls. (D) Cells expressing SHBs–Strep–Flag were treated with adenosine dialdehyde (ADOX, 40 μM) for 36 h, followed by Strep pull–down and WB for SDMA and SHBs. Densitometric ratios (SDMA/IP–SHBs and SHBs/β–actin) are shown above/below the blots. (E) Huh7 cells were transfected with plasmids encoding SHBs–Strep–Flag or the indicated R→K mutants (R73K, R78K, R79K, R169K). SDMA on immunoprecipitated SHBs was assessed by Strep pull–down and WB; densitometric SDMA/IP–SHBs ratios are shown above the blots.

One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey ' s post hoc test was used to determine statistical significance. *p < 0.05 indicates significance compared to the control group, while #p < 0.05 denotes significance compared to the OA group. Groups: Control (0.1% DMSO); OA (0.4 mM), oleic acid-induced HepG2 cells without treatment; SR 10, OA-induced HepG2 cells +10 μg/mL Sangyod rice extract; SR 50, OA-induced HepG2 cells +50 μg/mL Sangyod rice extract; SR 100, OA-induced HepG2 cells +100 μg/mL Sangyod rice extract.

    (A) Expression levels of ChREBP ( MLXIPL ) in 66 human LUAD cell lines, derived from RNA-seq datasets available in the EMBL-EBI Expression Atlas, are presented in transcripts per million (TPM). (B-F) Expression of ChREBP in NCI-H1975, NCI-H1650, NCI-H2228 and HepG2 cells assessed using RT-qPCR assays. (B) Expression level of seven candidate HKGs. Cycle threshold (Ct) values are displayed. (C) Average expression stability values of seven HKGs determined by geNorm are shown. Expression levels of total ChREBP (D), ChREBP-α (E), and ChREBP-β (F) were normalized against the three most stable HKGs, RPS13, QARS, and RNA18S . Data represents the results of three independent experiments. Asterisks (*) indicate a significance level of p < 0.05 compared to the expression levels in the HepG2 cell line.
