Fig. 7From: JMJD6–BRD4 complex stimulates lncRNA HOTAIR transcription by binding to the promoter region of HOTAIR and induces radioresistance in liver cancer stem cellsJMJD6 inhibitor SKLB325 represses the LCSC stemness and relieves cell radioresistance. A The expression of HOTAIR, JMJD6 and LSD1 in Hep3B and Huh7 CSCs in response to JMJD6 inhibitor SKLB325 determined by RT-qPCR, normalized to GAPDH. B The expression of HOTAIR and MAPK1 in Hep3B and Huh7 CSCs in response to JMJD6 inhibitor SKLB325 determined by RT-qPCR, normalized to GAPDH. C The expression of Sox2 and Oct2 in Hep3B and Huh7 CSCs in response to JMJD6 inhibitor SKLB325 determined by RT-qPCR, normalized to GAPDH. D The difference of cell stemness after SKLB325 treatment, as detected by microsphere formation assay. E The impact of SKLB325 on colony formation ability in response to SKLB325 treatment, as detected by clonogenic assay. F The diameter of xenografts tumors in mice with SKLB325 treatment. G The tumor volume of xenografted tumors. H, ERK2 (MAPK1) expression in the tumor tissues of mice in response to JMJD6 inhibitor SKLB325 measured by immunohistochemistry. I The expression of HOTAIR in the tumor tissues of mice in response to JMJD6 inhibitor SKLB325 determined by RT-qPCR, normalized to GAPDH. J Ki-67 staining and TUNEL staining were adopted to examine cell proliferation and apoptosis in the tumor tissues of mice in response to JMJD6 inhibitor SKLB325. *p < 0.05 compared with DMSO-treated cells or mice. Experimental data were shown as mean ± standard deviation. Results between two groups were compared by unpaired t testBack to article page
