Figure Lengend Snippet: Pacritinib inhibits activities of JAK2, STAT3 and NF-κB. Protein extracts of JSC-1 and BCBL-1 cells treated for 48 h with 1 μM pacritinib (CTI BioPharma Corp.) or DMSO control were analyzed for the total and phosphorylated JAK2, STAT3 and p65 of NF-κB by Western blot. ( A ) JAK2, STAT3 and p65 indicate the total amount of the protein; pJAK2, pSTAT3 and p65 indicate the phosphorylated forms of the proteins, and β-actin serves as the internal control. Intensity of each band in JSC-1 group. Western blots were stripped after the initial probe of the phosphorylated proteins and β-actin and then probed with antibodies to the unphosphorylated proteins. The full scanned Western blots of Fig. 3A are provided in Supplemental File 12. ( B ) Signal intensities for JSC-1 and ( C ) BCBL-1 cells were normalized according to β-actin, and signal of all total and phosphorylated JAK2, STAT3 and p65 of NF-κB in the Pac-treated cells were presented as percentages compared with that of the control cells.
