DNMTi treatment increases CD38 cell surface expression. a Bar graph of CD38 expression and cell survival upon treatment with different drugs in the indicated cell lines. Height of the bars indicates the fold change in CD38 MFI (left y-axis) and bold black line shows % cell viability (right y-axis). Both are normalized to DMSO treatment. Colors indicate the drug and concentration used. Data are presented as mean ± SD from 2 to 3 independent experiments with technical triplicate in each experiment. Asterisk indicates a significant difference from DMSO treatment (p ≤ 0.05 using a paired student’s t-test). For AZA treatment results are shown for 3d + 4 treatment. b Bar graph comparing azacytidine and decitabine treatments. As before, height of the bars indicates the fold change in CD38 MFI (left y-axis) and bold black line shows % cell viability (right y-axis). Cell viability is ~95% at 10 uM decitabine compared with ~40% for 1 uM azacytidine. Asterisk indicates a significant difference from DMSO treatment (p ≤ 0.05 using a paired student’s t-test). c CD38 expression on primary MM cells upon decitabine treatment. Gray lines separate different patient samples (IDs on x-axis). The percentage of CD138+ cells in each sample are given in brackets underneath the IDs. Data are presented as mean ± SD from three replicate wells
