Effect of 991 and C13 on BMP6-induced hepcidin gene expression in WT and AMPKLiv KO mice. (A) Immunoblots showing pAMPK/AMPK and pACC/ACC in hepatocyte extracts prepared as previously described, treated with 10 nM BMP6, 3 μM 991 or 3 μM C13. (B) Q-PCR analysis showing hepcidin mRNA levels in mouse primary hepatocytes treated with BMP6 (10 nM), 991 (3μM) or C13 (3μM) for 24 h. RNA extraction and real-time quantification of transcripts were performed as described. mRNA expression was calculated using the ΔΔCt method and normalized to the expression of cyclophilin A. Hepcidin gene expression is expressed in % of BMP6 treated hepatocytes. Error bars represent SD for n = 3 samples in each group.
