Distribution of NM1β in HGPS cells
Proliferating HGPS cells | 0 hours (quiescent HGPS cells) | 24 hours | 36 hours | 48 hours | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Nucleolar + rim + nucleoplasmic | 5.8 ± 3.0 | 0.8 ± 2.0 | 2.7 ± 6.24 | 3.1 ± 3.06 | 10.4 ± 3.05 |
Nucleolar only | 0 ± 0 | 19.8 ± 6.65 | 19.7 ± 6.506 | 8.0 ± 6.08 | 8.2 ± 3.05 |
Aggregates | 85.1 ± 6.11 | 77.3 ± 6.55 | 71.9 ± 5.85 | 83.3 ± 3.06 | 76.4 ± 8.96 |
Rim + nucleoplasmic | 5.2 ± 2.51 | 0 ± 0 | 2.2 ± 3.06 | 2.9 ± 4.0 | 2.2 ± 3.61 |
Nucleoplasmic | 2.9 ± 2.64 | 1.4 ± 3.51 | 1.8 ± 3.51 | 1.8 ± 4.0 | 1.8 ± 2.64 |
Dull | 0.1 ± 1.53 | 0.6 ± 0.57 | 1.7 ± 3.78 | 0.7 ± 2.0 | 0.9 ± 2.51 |
Proliferating HGPS cells were in 15% serum, quiescent HGPS cells were in 0.5% serum for 7 days, and 24, 36 and 48 hours refer to time after the re-addition of serum. The distribution of NM1β is normally nucleolar + rim + nucleoplasmic in proliferating control cells, while abnormal distributions are nucleolar only, aggregates, rim + nucleoplasmic, nucleoplasmic only and dull. In control quiescent cells aggregates are the most common distribution observed [42]. Numbers are percentage values ± standard deviation. The most prominent distribution of NM1β in HGPS cells in high and low serum was in aggregates.
