Figure Lengend Snippet: MSSV-mediated inhibition of proliferation of the human bladder cancer cell lines, 5637 and T24, was owing to G1-phase cell cycle arrest. ( A ) Both cell lines were treated with or without MSSV at the indicated concentrations for 24 h, followed by MTT assays for cell viability. ( B ) Cells were treated with indicated concentrations of MSSV for 24 h, and cell counting was performed via trypan blue staining. ( C ) Both cell lines were treated with MSSV for 24 h and analyzed for cell cycle distribution using fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) histograms. The percentage of cells in each cell cycle phase is presented. ( D ) Cells were exposed to MSSV at the indicated concentrations for 24 h. The expression levels of cyclin D1, cyclin E, CDK2, CDK4, p21WAF1, p27KIP1, p53, and GAPDH were analyzed via immunoblotting. Bar graphs show the relative fold changes in proteins at different MSSV concentrations in comparison with the control. ( E ) The cell lysates were immunoprecipitated with antibodies recognizing CDK2 and CDK4, followed by immunoblotting with specific antibodies against p21WAF1, p27KIP1, CDK2, and CDK4. Graphs show the relative amount of immunoprecipitated proteins as fold changes in comparison with the control. For the bar graphs, values were presented as the mean ± SD of three independent experiments; * p < 0.05, compared with the control group. Uncropped Western Blot Images in .

Article Snippet: The human bladder carcinoma cell lines, 5637 and T24, were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA) and maintained in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin at 37 °C in a 5% CO 2 humidified incubator.

Article Title: Inhibitory effect of Au@Pt-NSs on proliferation, migration, and invasion of EJ bladder carcinoma cells: involvement of cell cycle regulators, signaling pathways, and transcription factor-mediated MMP-9 expression

doi: 10.2147/IJN.S158463

Figure Lengend Snippet: Inhibition of the proliferation of EJ bladder cancer cells by heterometallic Au@Pt-NSs. Notes: Both EJ cells and HUCs were incubated for 24 h with different concentrations of Au@Pt-NSs (0, 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 μM). Cell viability was measured using the MTT assay in EJ cells ( A ) and HUCs ( D ). Viable cells were measured using trypan blue staining for EJ cells ( B ) and HUCs ( E ). Morphological changes were observed after treatment with Au@Pt-NSs at different concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 μM) for EJ cells ( C ) and HUCs ( F ). For the bar graphs, values are presented as mean ± SD of three independent experiments; * P < 0.05, compared with the control group. Abbreviations: Au@Pt-NSs, gold@platinum nanoseeds; Con, negative control; HUCs, human urothelial cells; MTT, 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide.
