Effect of TET1 on the gene methylation level and mRNA expression.

(a,b) Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect the expression of 5 mC and 5 hmC in highly and poorly differentiated Normal cervical tissue cervical cancer tissues; (c,d) Genes with a high methylation level, but low mRNA expression and genes with a low methylation level but high mRNA expression were observed through methylation sequencing. Among them, only NKRF and HIST1H2AK were involved in the change of the promoter methylation level; (e,f) The specific methylation levels of the selected genes were detected by MEDIP-qPCR, and the NKRF and HIST1H2AK with upregulated promoter methylation and downregulated mRNA verified by q-PCR; (g) The correlation among TET1, NKRF, and HIST1H2AK was analysed with reference to the TCGA database. (h) The knockdown efficiency of NKRF was verified by RT-qPCR; (i) The expression of autophagy related protein LC3B was detected after NKRF knockdown.
