Fig. 5From: IGF2BP1-regulated expression of ERRα is involved in metabolic reprogramming of chemotherapy resistant osteosarcoma cellsIGF2BP1 binds with 3′UTR of ERRα to increase its mRNA stability. The binding between ERRα mRNA and potential reader proteins in MG-63 (a) or HOS (b) cells was checked by RIP-PCR; the binding between ERRα mRNA with YTHDF2 or IGF2BP1 in parental or Dox-resistant MG-63 (c) and HOS (d) cells were checked by RIP-PCR; e the expression of IGF2BP1 in Dox-resistant and parental OS cells were checked by western blot analysis; f The expression of IGF2BP1 and ERRα in sh-Control and sh-IGF2BP1 Dox-resistant OS cells were checked by western blot analysis; the mRNA of ERRα in sh-Control and sh-IGF2BP1 MG-63/Dox (g) or HOS/Dox (h) cells treated with Act-D for different time periods; i cells were transfected with vector control (pcDNA) or pcDNA/IGF2BP1 for 24 h, and then the expression of IGF2BP1 and ERRα were checked by western blot analysis; MG-63 (j) or HOS (k) cells were transfected with vector control (pcDNA) or pcDNA/IGF2BP1 for 24 h, and then further treated with increasing concentrations of Dox for 24 h. Data are presented as means ± SD from three independent experiments. **p < 0.01 by Student’s t testBack to article page
