Figure Lengend Snippet: FUBP3 mediates MXI1 stability by recruiting co-inhibitors to silence RRAS . ( A ) MXI1 mRNA expression in AMKL cells after infection of oe- FUBP3 + sh-NC or sh- MXI1 1#, 2#, and 3# by RT-qPCR (n = 5, one-way ANOVA). ( B ) MXI1, RRAS, and ERK-1/2 protein expression and the extent of ERK-1/2 phosphorylation in AMKL cells after infection were analyzed by western blot assay (n = 3, one-way ANOVA). ( C ) The proliferative capacity of CD8 + T cells was analyzed by flow cytometry (n = 5, one-way ANOVA). ( D ) CD8 + T cell surface activation marker CD25 expression and cytotoxic molecule GzmB production were analyzed by flow cytometry (n = 5, one-way ANOVA). ( E ) Levels of IL-2 and IFN-γ in co-culture systems were detected by ELISA (n = 5, one-way ANOVA). ( F ) The proportion of PD-1 + CD8 + and TIM-3 + CD8 + in a co-culture system was analyzed by flow cytometry (n = 5, one-way ANOVA). ( G ) Protein expression of PD-L1 on the surface of AMKL cells was analyzed using western blot analysis (n = 3, one-way ANOVA). ( H ) PD-L1 expression on the surface of AMKL cells was analyzed using flow cytometry (n = 5, one-way ANOVA). ( I ) AMKL cell viability detected by CCK-8 (n = 5, one-way ANOVA). ( J ) AMKL cell apoptosis detected by TUNEL assay (n = 5, one-way ANOVA). ( K ) Protein expression of Cleaved caspase-3 on the surface of AMKL cells was analyzed using western blot analysis (n = 3, one-way ANOVA). Data were presented as means ± SEM, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, **** p < 0.0001
