Figure 3. The attenuated sensitivity to MMC is associated with a reduced recruitment of 53BP1 at ICLs.

Figure 3

(A–B) Recruitment of 53BP1 following MMC treatment. Primary fibroblasts from the father, mother, sister, and a healthy control were pulsed for 1 hour with 1 μg/ml MMC and further incubated for the indicated times before fixation and 53BP1 immunostaining. (A) Representative images. (B) Number of foci per cell as quantified from at least 100 nuclei from 3 independent experiments, shown as mean ± SEM. Statistical analyses were performed using Mann-Whitney tests comparing each sample with the control at the corresponding time point. (CD) Cells treated as in A were incubated for 16 h before fixation and γH2AX (C) or BRCA1 (D) immunostaining. Left panel show representative images. Right panel show the mean number of foci per cell calculated as in B.
