Forced HIF-1 activation is sufficient to resist propofol toxicity in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. (a) SH-SY5Y cells were incubated with (+) or without (−) 200 µM nPG or 1 mM DMOG for 4 h. 35 µg of whole-cell lysates were immunoblotted (IB) using primary antibodies raised against the indicated proteins. (b) OCR and ECAR were measured in SH-SY5Y cells exposed to 100 µM nPG or 100 µM DMOG for 4 h. (c and d) SH-SY5Y cells were exposed to 100 µM nPG and 100 µM DMOG for 4 h and then exposed to 50 µM propofol for 6 h. Graphic depictions of caspase-3/7 activity (n = 3) (c) and cell death (n = 3) (d). Differences were evaluated by two-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s test for multiple comparisons; *p < 0.05, as compared to the control cells (no treatment); #p < 0.05 for the indicated comparison.
