Article Title: Myc and Skp2 overexpression promotes p27 ubiquitination and degradation in Ewing Sarcoma

doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0342767

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Western blot analysis of Myc, Skp2, and p27 expression in human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and Ewing sarcoma cells (SKES1) treated with specific siRNAs or negative control siRNA. GAPDH was used as a loading control. The inclusion of hMSCs as a non-malignant comparator clarifies disease-specific expression differences. There were decreases in each mRNA by Myc-siRNA (20 nM) and (B) Skp2-siRNA (20 nM) (B) . The expression of Myc protein was analyzed by (C) immunoblotting and (D) densitometric quantification. The effect of Skp2-siRNA on Skp2 protein expression was analyzed by (E) immunoblotting and (F) quantified accordingly.

Article Snippet: After centrifugation, supernatants were incubated with anti-p27 antibody (3686, CST) at 4 °C overnight, followed by Protein G Sepharose 4 Fast Flow beads (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA) for 2 h. After washing, immunocomplexes were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotted with anti-Ubiquitin antibody (3936, CST).

Article Title: Myc and Skp2 overexpression promotes p27 ubiquitination and degradation in Ewing Sarcoma

doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0342767

Figure Lengend Snippet: Changes in the (A) phosphorylation levels of p27 and Rb protein, and (B) protein levels of Myc, CCNE, CCNA, and CDK2 by the CCNE/CDK2 complex were observed. (C) The effects of the CCNE/CDK2 complex on Rb and E2F1 binding were investigated using immunoprecipitation. The CCNE/CDK2 complex inhibited the binding of Rb to E2F1.

Article Title: Myc and Skp2 overexpression promotes p27 ubiquitination and degradation in Ewing Sarcoma

doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0342767

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Tumor growth was compared across groups after tumor tissues were transplanted subcutaneously into mice. (B) The expression of p27 and CCNE in mouse tumor tissues was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. Original magnification, × 400; Scale bars: 50 μm. (C) The proportion of immunohistochemically positive cells was quantified. Data represent mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. **, p < 0.01 versus the related control groups. (D) A schematic summary of the study was created, demonstrating that Myc enhances the expression of AP4 and Skp2, ultimately leading to p27 ubiquitination.
