Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Left: Western blot analysis of DNMT1 and DNMT3A protein expression levels in HCT116 cells exposed for 24 h to the indicated concentrations of 2b or 4c . Control cells were treated with the same volume of vehicle (DMSO). GAPDH was used as loading control. Blots are representative of two independent experiments. Right: Densitometric analysis of protein levels is reported. ( B ) Left: Western blot analysis of DNMT1 and DNMT3A protein expression levels in HCT116 cells exposed for 24 h to 4c at 1 µM and co-treated with bortezomib (when indicated) used at 10 nM. Control cells were treated with the same volume of vehicle (DMSO). GAPDH was used as a loading control. Blots are representative of three independent experiments. Right: Densitometric analysis of protein levels is reported. Data are represented as mean ± SEM. Significance is represented as * p < 0.05 related to the control.

Article Snippet: The following primary antibodies were used for immunoblotting: α-DNMT1 (Novus Biologicals, Littleton, CO, USA). α-DNMT3a (SantaCruz Bio-technologies, CA, USA) and α-GAPDH (Millipore Corp., Bedford, MA USA), used as a loading control.
