Article Title: Blocking CXCR4 – CARM1 – YAP axis overcomes osteosarcoma doxorubicin resistance by suppressing aerobic glycolysis
doi: 10.1111/cas.16295
Figure Lengend Snippet: CXCR4–CARM1 axis promotes osteosarcoma progress and modulates drug resistance in vivo . (A) Overexpression of CARM1 effectively promoted the volume of the tumor and CXCR4 antagonist, AMD3100 inhibited the proliferation of osteosarcoma in the MG63 DoxR‐bearing model. (B) The tumor volume was monitored every 3 days, and a tumor growth curve was generated. (C) Tumors were extracted and weighed after 32 days. (D) Protein levels of CXCR4, CARM1, H3R17me, YAP, HK2, PKM2, LDHA in the tumors from control, CARM1 OE, AMD3100 and CARM1 OE + AMD3100. (E) Relative intensity of protein levels of CXCR4, CARM1, H3R17me, YAP, HK2, PKM2, LDHA in the tumors from control, CARM1 OE, AMD3100 and CARM1 OE + AMD3100. (F) Representative immunohistochemistry staining results of Ki‐67 and YAP of tumors from control, CARM1 OE, AMD3100 and CARM1 OE + AMD3100 200 µm (low magnification), 50 µm (high magnification). All data are presented as mean ± SD and p ‐values were calculated using the two‐tailed Student's t ‐test or Wilcox Rank Sum test. The p ‐values are presented as follows: ns, not significant; * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; *** p < 0.001. * vs Control, # vs CARM1 OE.
Article Snippet: For immunohistochemistry, sections were blocked and incubated with primary antibodies against CXCR4 and CARM1 (diluted 1:100 in 3% BSA; Cell Signaling Technology) at room temperature for 1 h, followed by the application of biotinylated donkey anti‐rabbit IgG (diluted 1:150 in 3% BSA; ThermoScientific) and HRP‐conjugated streptavidin (diluted 1:200 in 3% BSA; BioLegend, USA).
