Figure Lengend Snippet: YAP deficiency resulted in senescence and DNA oxidative damage in HTR8/SVneo cells, and compromised its invasiveness. (A) Western blotting of YAP expression in different HTR8/SVneo cells. sh-NC, negative control cells transfected with scramble shRNA; sh-YAP, cells transfected with shRNAs targeting YAP (n = 3). (B) Western blotting of YAP, p53, p21 and p16 expression in different HTR8/SVneo cells. Sh-YAP#1 was used in the following experiments (n = 3). (C) Representative SA-β-Gal staining in various HTR8/SVneo cells (n = 3). Scale bars, 100 μm. (D) Wound-healing assay of HTR8/SVneo cells (n = 3). Scale bars, 100 μm. (E) Transwell invasion assay of HTR8/SVneo cells (n = 3). Scale bars, 250 μm. (F) IF staining of YAP (red) and 8-OHdG (green) in HTR8/SVneo cells; nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue) (n = 3). Scale bar, 100 μm. All data are presented as the mean ± SEM. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001. Student's t test. AU, arbitrary unit. All data are representative of three independent experiments.
