Left panel: representative semi-quantitative RT-PCR using primers specific for TNFSF11 Variant 1 (amplified from E1D-E4) and Transcript Variant 2 (amplified from E1B-E5) (minimum of 3 biologic repeats). GAPDH was used as the housekeeping gene. Right panel: quantitative RT-PCR showing relative expression (GAPDH housekeeping gene) of total TNFSF11 and TNFSF11 Variant 1 expression (n = 3). * and # indicate statistically significant differences (p ≤ 0.05) between indicated conditions for TNFSF11 Variant 1 and total TNFSF11 expression respectively.

    A. Western Bot showing expression of secreted RANKL protein isoform in Jurkat T cell lysates and culture media with or without PMA/ionomycin (P/I) stimulation. RANKL-GST (a recombinant full-length transmembrane RANKL protein) was run as a control. Cont – control. B. Flow cytometry analysis of surface (membrane-bound) RANKL protein expression (i) Unstimulated MG-63 and (ii) Jurkat T cells, vehicle control or P/I stimulated. C. Flow cytometry analysis of intracellular RANKL protein expression in permeabilized Jurkat T cells treated with or without brefeldin before harvest. (i) Control unstimulated or (ii) PMA/ionomycin stimulated Jurkat T cells without brefeldin treatment (iii) Control unstimulated or (iv) P/I stimulated Jurkat T cells treated with brefeldin.
