Effect of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) antagonist, trans-Ned 19, on lysosomal morphology in K562 cells treated with TKIs. Cells were cultured for 6 h in the presence of particular TKI with or without 10µM trans-Ned 19 under standard conditions and then fixed in paraformaldehyde and subjected to the immunostaining of LAMP1. Cells cultured in medium without TKIs were taken as a control. (a) Morphologic changes in lysosomes of K562 cells (typical analysis). (b) Quantitative analysis of lysosomal size in GF treated K562 cells. (c) Quantitative analysis of lysosomal size in IM treated K562 cells. Lysosomal morphology was evaluated in at least 250 cells for each treatment. The results are represented as means of four independent experiments with standard deviations. * denotes significant change in the number of lysosomes with size > 0.5µm (p < 0.05) between cells treated with TKI and cells treated with TKI + trans-Ned 19. ** denotes significant change in the number of lysosomes with size > 0.5µm (p < 0.01) between cells treated with TKI and cells treated with TKI + trans-Ned 19.
