Figure 7. T20 promotes pre-iPSCs conversion by facilitating metabolic switch.

Figure 7

Two pre-iPSCs cell lines, pre-2-2 and pre-3, were converted to iPSCs with Vc and indicated treatments. Numbers of GFP+ colonies were counted. (a,b) Retrovirus encoding sh-LSD1 and LSD1 were used for the conversion of pre-2-2 ((a), n = 6) and pre-3 ((b), n = 6). (c,d) T20 and GSK2879552 (2 μM) were used for the conversion of pre-2-2 ((c), n = 6) and pre-3 ((d), n = 6). (e,f) The effects of T20 on pre-iPSCs conversion were determined in pre-2-2 ((e), n = 6) and pre-3 ((f), n = 6) with reduced Vc concentrations. (g) Pre-2-2 were pre-treated with PBS (control), Vc and T20 from Day 0 to Day 4, and then treated with Vc or Vc+T20 from day 5 to Day 11. GFP+ colonies were counted. (h) Retrovirus encoding sh-Luc or sh-Hif1α was used with or without T20, and Rot was used with retrovirus encoding Flag or LSD1 during iPSCs generation. GFP+ colonies were counted.Two-way ANOVA with Bonferroni’s test as a post-hoc test was used.
