XAF1 plays important role in adaptive TMZ resistance GBM cells independent of MGMT expression. (a) Protein expression of MGMT and XAF1 in U251, U87, U138, T98G control and resistant cells. Specific antibodies as indicated. (b) MGMT and XAF1 mRNA expression analyzed by real time PCR in U251, U87, U138, T98G control and resistant cells (n = 3, p < 0.05 or no significant difference). BLQ, below limit quantification. (c) MGMT mRNA expression level analyzed by real time PCR with U251 & T98G control and TMZ resistance cells, 3 dosages of TMZ resistance were used. (d) XAF1 mRNA expression level analyzed by real time PCR with U251 & T98G control and TMZ resistant cells, 3 dosages of TMZ resistance were used. Error bar represent the mean ± SD; n = 3, with significance *p < 0.05 by Student’s t-test.
