PC7 or furin can synergize with CoCl2 to regulate HIF-1α expression. A. The synergistic effect of PC SiRNA with CoCl2. The cells were first transfected with different SiRNAs for 1 day and then treated with CoCl2 for another day. The lysates were subjected to Western blot analysis for HIF-1α and GAPDH expression. B. The synergistic effect of PC SiRNA with the proteosome inhibitor MG-132. The cells were first transfected with different SiRNAs for 2 days and then treated with 2.5 μM of MG-132 for 30 min before harvest for Western blot analysis of HIF-1α and GAPDH.
