Prevention of HIF-1α nuclear translocation by
α-ketoglutarate in SDHa-silenced H9c2 cells. A,
confocal images of control H9c2 cells stained with MitoTracker Green
(panel a) and Cy3 immunostaining for HIF-1α (panel b,
red) and overlay (panel c); or SDHa-silenced cells
with α-KG and MitoTracker Green (panel d) and HIF-1α
(panel e, red) and overlay (panel f); or
SDHa-silencing without α-KG and MitoTracker Green (panel
g) and HIF-1α (panel h, red) and overlay
(panel j). B, Western blot of nuclear extracts (20 μg)
using antibodies to HIF-1α and tubulin is shown.
