Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) After knockdown of RIPK1 in 786-O, HepG2, and MDA-MB-231 cells, the protein levels of apoptotic markers mediated by TNF-α+SM164 (TS) stimulation were detected. ( B ) WT and RIPK3-overexpressing 786-O, HepG2, and MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with DMSO or TSZ for 6 hours; subsequently WCL was harvested for IB analysis. ( C ) Cell viability assay to assess the sensitivity of 786-O, HepG2, and MDA-MB-231 cells to SM164 treatment. ( D ) Cell viability assay for the effect of RIPK1 knockdown on the sensitivity of 786-O, HepG2, and MDA-MB-231 cells to sunitinib treatment. ( E ) Cell viability assay to assess the effect of combined use of SM164 on sunitinib sensitivity in 786-O, HepG2, and MDA-MB-231 cells. ( F ) Cell viability assay for the effect of RIPK1 knockdown on the sensitivity of 786-O, HepG2, and MDA-MB-231 cells to sunitinib alone, and sunitinib combined with SM164 treatment. ( G ) WT and RIPK1-knockdown 786-O, HepG2, and MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with DMSO, sunitinib alone, SM164 alone, or sunitinib combined with SM164 for 24 hours; subsequently WCL was harvested for IB analysis. Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) experiments were performed in triplicate and repeated 3 times independently. Data are presented as mean ± SD. The significance of differences was revealed based on paired Student’s t test.
