FAXDC2 enhances ERK phosphorylation and upregulates RUNX1 in TPA-induced K562 cells. (a) Cytosolic localization (left panel) of FAXDC2 was observed in 293T cells overexpressing Flag-Tagged FAXDC2 protein (red). Right panel depicts merged image of FAXDC2 together with nuclear DAPI staining (blue). Scale bar: 75 μm. (b) K562 cells transduced with control (Ctrl) or FAXDC2-overexpressing lentiviral vector were induced with TPA for indicated hours. The phosphorylation of ERK (p-ERK), ERK, Flag and the expression of RUNX1 were measured. HSC70 served as control. (c) Control (Ctrl) or FAXDC2 knockdown (shRNA#1 and shRNA#2) K562 cells were stimulated with TPA for hours as indicated. The phosphorylation of ERK (p-ERK), ERK and the expression of RUNX1 were measured by western blot.
