Influence of NFI over-expression on p21 promoter activity in growth-arrested HCT116 cells. (A) Crude nuclear extracts were prepared from both HCT116 and HeLa cells (used as a control) and examined for expression of Sp1 and NFI in Western blot analyses. (B and C) The p21–192 recombinant construct was co-transfected with the empty vector pCH (+EV), or with expression plasmids encoding each of the NFI isoforms, either individually (+NFI-A, -B, -C and -X) or in combination (+NFI-BCX), in doxorubicin, growth-arrested HCT116 cells. Cells were collected 48 h later and used either for the measurement of the CAT activity (panel B) or to determine the proportion of the cells engaged in the S-phase of the cell cycle by FACS analyses (panel C).
