Article Title: Involvement of the p38/MK2 Pathway in MCLR Hepatotoxicity Revealed through MAPK Pharmacological Inhibition and Phosphoproteomics in HepaRG Cells
doi: 10.3390/ijms241311168
Figure Lengend Snippet: Western blot analysis of ubiquitination and DNA damage markers. HepaRG cells were treated with 50 μM SB (black bars) or vehicle (V) (white bars) for 1 h and with or without 1 μM MCLR (M) for 24 h. Representative blots for RBX1 ( A ), SKP1 ( B ), ubiquitin ( C ), CUL4A ( D ), DDB2 ( E ), and DDB1 ( F ). Amido black total protein stain and 2-way ANOVA tables are shown for each panel. Error bars represent mean ± standard deviation of n = 3. * p < 0.05 represent Sidak’s multiple comparison post-test comparing vehicle treatment to SB treatment within each MCLR treatment group (0 and 1 µM).
Article Snippet: Undifferentiated HepaRG cells (passage 14) (cat. HPR101) were purchased from BioPredic International (Saint Grégoire, France) and cultured as per manufacturer’s protocols in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO 2 at 37 °C.
