Figure Legend Snippet: MTERF3 expression is upregulated in CSE-treated 16HBE cells and knockdown of its expression suppresses the induction of apoptosis of 16HBE cells exposed to CSE. (A) CCK-8 assay was used to detect 16HBE cell viability with or with CSE exposure. (B) Immunoblotting was employed to assess MTERF3 expression in 16HBE cells with or with CSE exposure. ***P<0.001 vs. control group. (C) Immunoblotting was used to assess MTERF3 expression in 16HBE cells following transfection. **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001 vs. siRNA-NC group. (D) The CCK-8 assay was used to detect the viability of MTERF3-silenced 16HBE cells exposed to CSE. (E) Flow cytometric analysis was used to detect the induction of apoptosis of MTERF3-silenced 16HBE cells exposed to CSE. (F) Immunoblotting was used to assess the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in MTERF3-silenced 16HBE cells exposed to CSE. ***P<0.001 vs. control group; # P<0.05, ## P<0.01 and ### P<0.001 vs. CSE + siRNA-NC group. MTERF3, mitochondrial transcription termination factor 3; CSE, cigarette smoke extract; CCK-8, Cell Counting Kit-8; cigarette smoke extract; siRNA, small interfering RNA; NC, negative control.
Techniques Used: Expressing, Knockdown, CCK-8 Assay, Western Blot, Control, Transfection, Cell Counting, Small Interfering RNA, Negative Control
Figure Legend Snippet: Knockdown of MTERF3 expression promotes mitophagy in CSE-treated 16HBE cells. (A) MDA content and (B) SOD activity were detected using the corresponding kits. (C) The generation of mitoROS was assessed with the application of Mito SOX Red staining. (D) MMP was evaluated using JC-1 staining. (E) Immunoblotting was employed to assess the expression of mitophagy-related proteins. ***P<0.001 vs. control group; # P<0.05, ## P<0.01 and ### P<0.001 vs. CSE + siRNA-NC group. MTERF3, mitochondrial transcription termination factor 3; CSE, cigarette smoke extract; MDA, malondialdehyde; SOD, superoxide dismutase; MMP, matrix metalloproteinase; JC-1, 5,5′,6,6′-tetrachloro1,1′,3,3′-tetramethylbenzimidazolylcarbocyanine iodide; siRNA, small interfering RNA; NC, negative control.
Techniques Used: Knockdown, Expressing, Activity Assay, Staining, Western Blot, Control, Small Interfering RNA, Negative Control
