(A) The IL-9-responsive cell lines indicated were
cultured in the presence of saturating concentrations of the indicated
cytokines for at least 3 days. After electrophoresis of 10 μg of
total RNA and transfer to nitrocellulose, the filter was hybridized
with a specific 32P-labelled mouse adseverin cDNA probe.
Hybridization with a β-actin probe was used as a control to compare
the amounts of RNA in the lanes. (B) Selective amplification of
adseverin (D5) cDNA. RT-PCR of total RNA of IL-9-induced TS2 cells.
pDpcr was used as the forward primer. The sequences of the different
primers are described in Materials and Methods. Lanes: 1, primer D3; 2,
primer D5; 3, primer D7; 4, primer D10; 5, primer D15; 6, primer D20;
7, primer d5/25; 8, primer d10/20; 9, primer Dcontr1; 10, primer
Dcontr2.
