Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 6. HIF-1a regulation by IDH2. A) PC3 (left) or DU145 (right) cells transfected with siCtrl, 3 independent IDH2-directed siRNAs (1, 2, 3), or pooled IDH2-directed siRNA (P) were analyzed by Western blotting. B) PC3 cells stably transduced with 2 independent control shRNAs (shCtrl #1 and #2) or 3 IDH2-directed shRNAs (D11, D12, and E1) were analyzed by Western blotting. C) PC3 cells transfected with siCtrl, siIDH1, or siIDH2 were analyzed by Western blotting. D) PC3 cells transfected with siCtrl or siIDH2 were reconstituted with vector or IDH2 cDNA and analyzed by Western blotting. E) PC3 cells transfected as in C were analyzed at the indicated time intervals by Western blotting. Bar graph (bottom), densitometric quantification of HIF-1a protein bands. F) PC3 (top) or DU145 (bottom) cells transfected with siCtrl or siIDH2 were incubated with the ROS scavenger, MnTBAP, and analyzed by Western blotting. G) PC3 cells transfected with siCtrl or siIDH2 were reconstituted with Prx3 or loss-of- function C108S Prx3 mutant (Prx3-Mut) and analyzed by Western blotting. H) PC3 cells transfected with siCtrl, siIDH2, or siHIF- 1a were analyzed for cell motility in 2D contour plots. Each line corresponds to the movements of an individual cell. The cutoff velocities for slow-moving or fast-moving (,0.45 mm/min or .0.45 mm/min) cells are indicated. Representative experiment (n = 2). I) The conditions are as in H, and the speed of cell movements (top, n = 58–64) and total distance traveled by individual cells (bottom, n = 58–64) was quantified per each condition. *P = 0.01, ***P , 0.0001. J) The conditions are as in H, and siRNA- transfected PC3 cells were analyzed for cell migration (top, n = 13–16) or Matrigel invasion (bottom, n = 23–31). Ns, not significant; shCtrl, control nontargeting shRNA; siCtrl, control nontargeting siRNA. Means 6 SD. ***P = 0.0002 to P , 0.0001.
