Figure Lengend Snippet: GALNT3 sustains B cell lymphomagenesis by enhancing DLBCL proliferation. Total proteins were extracted from a panel of DLBCL cells prior to subject either to ( A ) qPCR or ( B ) Immunoblotting of GALNT3 expression levels. GALNT3 low expressing cells (Karpas-422, DB and SUDHL8) were transduced with lentiviral encoding empty vector or GALNT3 overexpression plasmids for 48 h, followed by flow cytometry sorting of GFP + cells to obtain stable transfectants. GALNT3 overexpression efficiency was determined by ( C ) qPCR or ( D ) Immunoblotting. Graph with error bars represent the mean ± SD from technical triplicates (* p < 0.01; ** p < 0.05; *** p < 0.001) compare empty vector to GALNT3 overexpression by Two-way ANOVA with replication . E CFSE assay of DLBCL cell proliferation, ( F ) Cell countess analysis of cell growth, ( G ) Brdu labelling of cell cycle, quantitation of percentage of cell cycle distribution was determined by gating of live cells in either G1 (light blue bar), S (light red bar) or G2/M (light green bar) phases. Graph with error bars represent the mean + SD from technical triplicates (* p < 0.01; ** p < 0.05; *** p < 0.001) compare empty vector to GALNT3 overexpression between G1 phase and S phase by Two-way ANOVA with replication. H above stable transfectants were synchronized to G1/S phase either by double thymidine or serum starvation methods accordingly to a published protocol followed by Immunoblotting assay to determine the expressions of cell cycle regulated proteins. a tubulin was included as an indication of equal loading of total amount of proteins per lane. All experiments were repeated three times. Graph with error bars represent the mean ± SD from technical triplicates (* p < 0.01; ** p < 0.05; *** p < 0.001) compare empty vector to GALNT3 overexpression by unpaired student T test
