Successful lymphocyte transformation depends on CHK1 expression levels. a Total splenocytes of the indicated genotypes were processed for immunoblotting using the indicated antibodies to assess the impact of MYC on CHK1 protein levels. Each lane represents an independent biological replicate. Two independent experiments are shown (n = 5/genotype in total) b Kaplan–Meier plot analysis showing lymphoma-free survival of mice of the indicated genotypes over an observation period of one year. Eμ-MYC + n = 31, median survival 106 days, Eμ-MYC + Chk1 +/− n = 41, median survival 205 days. Logrank (Mantel-Cox) p = 0.056 (χ 2 = 3.632), Breslow–Gehan–Wilcoxon p = 0.0258 (χ 2 = 4.967). c Wild-type C57Bl/6N mice were either left untreated or irradiated with a single dose of 1.75 Gy. Four days after irradiation organs were harvested and processed for western analysis. Each lane represents an independent biological replicate. d Kaplan–Meier analysis showing lymphoma-free survival of WT and Chk1 +/− mice exposed to a fractionated irradiation protocol (4× 1.75 Gy) at 4 weeks of age. Median tumor onset: WT (n = 7) 217 days, Chk1 +/− (n = 24) 245 days. Logrank (Mantel-Cox) p = 0.0399 (χ 2 = 4.221)
