Figure 6. Fatty acid uptake by different prostate epithelial cell lines and the suppressive effect of dmrFABP5 in PC3-M cells.

Figure 6

A. Representative histograms for unstained PNT2, LNCaP, 22RVI and PC3-M cells without adding BODIPY-labelled fatty acid. The marker M1 highlights negative peaks of the subclass control. B. Representative histograms for fluorescence of stained PNT2, LNCaP, 22RVI and PC3-M cells 30 min after adding BODIPY-fluorescently labelled fatty acid; the marker M2 is placed to the right of M1 to highlight positive events (total percentage of cells with BODIPY-labelled fatty acid). C. Percentages of cells taking up BODIPY-labelled fatty acid from different prostate epithelial cell lines. D. Representative histograms for fatty acid uptake of PC3-M cells at a fixed concentration of BODIPY-labelled fatty acid in the presence of different concentrations of dmrFABP5. M1, unstained cells; M2, stained cells. E. Percentages of cells with fluorescently-labelled fatty acid in PC3-M control (untreated) and those wells treated with different concentrations of dmrFABP5 for 30 min with a fixed concentration of BODIPY-labelled fatty acid. Fluorescent intensity of each cell line was measured with an EPICS XL Cytometer (Beckman) at 570nm and data analysis was performed with SYSTEM II Software. Values were plotted as mean ± SE (error bars). The differences between the control and the experimental groups were assessed by 2-tailed unpaired Student's t test. *, p < 0.01; **, p < 0.001.
