Figure Lengend Snippet: Intrinsic apoptotic signaling and Panx1 channel cleavage in FADD-deficient Jurkat cancer cells is uncoupled from accumulation of extracellular adenine nucleotides. WT and FADD-deficient cells were treated with 3 μM STS, 20 μM Etop, or 250 ng/ml αFas in the presence of 100 μM zVAD or 1 μM NSA as indicated. (A, B) Whole-cell lysates were prepared at the indicated times after treatment of Western blot analysis and probed for Panx1, PARP, and actin. Data are representative of three experiments for each cell type and condition. (C, D) Conditioned extracellular media samples were collected from STS-treated WT cells (C-i), Etop-treated WT cells (C-ii), STS-treated FADD-deficient (FADD-def) cells (D-i), or Etop-treated FADD-def cells (D-ii) at 0, 2, 4, 8, and 12 hours after treatment and assayed for release of LDH as described in Fig 1. Data indicate mean ± S.E. of three independent experiments. Analysis by two-way analysis of variance and Tukey post-test comparison; a: STS-stimulated or Etop-stimulated +zVAD versus −zVAD; b: STS- or Etop-stimulated +NSA versus −NSA. (E, F) WT and FADD-def cells were treated with 3 μM STS or 20 μM Etop in the presence or absence of 100 μM zVAD or 1 μM NSA where indicated. Conditioned extracellular media samples were collected from STS-treated WT cells (E-i), Etop-treated WT cells (E-ii), STS-treated (FADD-def cells (F-i), or Etop-treated FADD-def cells (F-ii) at 0, 2, 4, 8, and 12 hours after treatment and assayed for total ATP + ADP + AMP as described in Materials and Methods. Data indicate mean ± S.E. of three independent experiments. Analysis by two-way analysis of variance and Tukey post-test comparison; a: STS- or Etop-stimulated +zVAD versus −zVAD; b: STS- or Etop-stimulated +NSA versus −NSA. All panels: ns, not statistically significant; *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; ****P < 0.0001.
