doi: 10.1128/mbio.02627-25

Figure Lengend Snippet: Characterization of EC₅₀ and binding properties of six anti-HPV18E7 mAbs. ( A ) Antibody against HPV18E7 binding ability analysis by ELISA. Recombinant HPV18 E7 protein (1 μg/mL) was coated onto plates. Commercial antibody F-7 as a positive control. ( B ) Competition matrix of six anti-E7 mAbs. Yellow box and black lines indicate mAbs that compete with one another. The value contained in each box is 1 − a given mAb/control across duplicate; a value <0.5 was taken to be negative binding of the detection mAb. Non-competing pairs are shown in green. ( C ) Kinetic parameters for the binding of each antibody to HPV18E7, as determined by surface plasmon resonance analysis. ( D ) Six Anti-E7 mAbs could recognize HPV18 E7 protein in the HPV18-positive HeLa cells by immunofluorescence. Scale bar = 20 um. Commercial antibody F-7 as a positive control. No primary antibody group as a negative control. The rectangular artifacts on the right side of F-7, 14E5, and 17F2 are the result of a technical issue that occurred during file conversion. ( E ) Quantitative analysis of panel D . The signal targeting E7 (the green signal in panel D) was quantitatively analyzed using ImageJ and normalized. Y normalization = mean density (experimental group)/average of mean density (negative control). A pairwise difference analysis was performed between the experimental and control groups using t -test, n = 3, * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, and *** P < 0.001. ( F ) Western blot showed that Anti-E7 mAbs could recognize endogenously expressed HPV18 E7 protein in the HPV18-positive HeLa cells. β-actin as the control. This figure represents spliced gel segments combined for imaging.

doi: 10.1002/ijc.70340

Figure Lengend Snippet: Th17 cells induce CAIX, hexokinase II and SLC2A1 mRNA expression in an oxygen‐dependent manner. SiHa (left), SW756 (middle) and Hela (right) were stimulated with medium (black bars), rhIL‐17 (100 ng/mL, red bars) and conditioned media of in vitro generated Th17 cells (CMTH17, 20%, blue bars) and incubated under normoxic (21% O 2 , striped bars) or hypoxic oxygen conditions (1% O 2 ). After 24 h, the cells were analyzed for (A) CAIX, (B) hexokinase II and (C) SLC2A1 expression by qRT‐PCR analysis and normalized to RPL13A housekeeping gene expression. The quotient of the gen of interest/RPL13A of medium‐ stimulated cells incubated by 21% oxygen was set at 1. Shown are the results (mean + SD) from six independent stimulations. Asterisks (* p < .05, ** p < .01, *** p < .001, **** p < .0001) represent statistical significances. The p ‐value according to the nonparametric Mann–Whitney U ‐test.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Th17‐hypoxia‐induced enhanced migration and invasion is dependent on IGF2BP2. (A) SiHa cells were transfected with IGF2BP2‐specific siRNA (siIGF2BP2 #1, #2) or siControl and stimulated with 100 ng/mL rhIL‐17 or CMTH17 for 24 h under hypoxic conditions. Whole cell extracts were analyzed for IGF2BP2 expression by Western blot analysis. β‐Actin was used as a loading control. The relative IGF2BP2 expression (IGF2BP2/β‐Actin) of medium stimulated cells was set at 1. (B, C) SiIGF2BP2 (#1, #2) transfected SiHa cells were scratched and stimulated with medium, rhIL‐17 or CMTH17 24 h post‐transfection. (B) Pictures of the scratches were taken after 0, 24, 48, and 72 h (scale bar: 200 μm). The relative loss of area was calculated for 3 days, indicated by lines, in relation to time point 0 h. The relative loss of the area after 72 h of the cells stimulated with medium was set at 1. (C) Bars represent data (mean + SD) of n = 3 independent experiments performed in doubles. (D, E) SiHa cells were stimulated with IGF2BP2 inhibitors (IGF2BP2 inihibitors#1, #2, 50 μM) for 1 h. Cells were scratched followed by stimulation with medium, rhIL‐17 or CMTH17 in the presence of IGF2BP2 inhibitors (IGF2BP2 inihibitors#1, #2, 25 μM for 72 h). Pictures of the scratches were taken after 0, 24, and 48 h (scale bar: 200 μm). The relative loss of area was calculated for 2 days, indicated by lines, in relation to time point 0 h. The relative loss of the area after 48 h of the cells stimulated with medium was set at 1. (E) Bars represent data (mean + SD) of n = 3 independent experiments performed in doubles. (F–H) Spheroids of SW756 cells and (I–K) spheroids of HeLa cells were generated in the absence or presence of rhIL‐17, CMTH17 cells, medium or CM of naive CD4 + cells. On day 5, spheroids were incubated with inhibitors (#1/#2, 25 μM) or DMSO as a control for 24 h. On day 6, spheroids were embedded into Matrigel. Pictures were taken for 8 days and spheroid invasion was calculated. Shown are the pictures of one representative experiment which depicts the invasiveness of the spheroids over the time (F–J, scale bar: 200 μm). The relative invasiveness after 8 days was determined in relation to medium or CM of naive CD4 + T cells, respectively and DMSO stimulated cells which was set at 1 (H, K, gray stripped bars). Due to the invasiveness of spheroids from HeLa cells on day 8, pictures were merged with the Microsoft Image Composite Editor program. Shown are the results (mean + SD) from six independent spheroids. Asterisks (* p < .05, ** p < .01, *** p < .001, **** p < .0001, n.s. = not significant) represent statistical significances. The p ‐value according to the nonparametric Mann–Whitney U ‐test.
