Fig. 3 BDH2 Is Required for 24p3-Mediated Iron Transport and Apoptosis
(A) Iron-binding assay. Left: FL5.12 cells were treated in the presence or absence of IL-3, and with a Bdh2 or control shRNA, and the iron-binding ability of 24p3 in the CM was monitored as described in Figure 1B. Inset: immunoblot analysis monitoring 24p3 levels in the CM and tubulin levels in the whole-cell extract (WCE). Right: FL5.12/Ec-24p3 cells were treated in the presence or absence of ponasterone A. Error bars indicate the SD.
(B) Iron exocytosis assay. 55FeCl3-loaded FL5.12 cells were either untreated (control) or treated with apo-24p3 or DFO, and the presence of 55Fe in the medium was quantified. Error bars indicate the SD.
(C) Apoptosis assay. FL5.12 cells cultured in the presence or absence of IL-3, with or without 2,5-DHBA, and expressing a NS or Bdh2 shRNA were analyzed for apoptosis by annexin V-FITC staining. Error bars indicate the SD.
