Fig. 3. The binding of NORAD and FUBP1 is essential for NORAD to induce apoptosis.

Fig. 3

a qRT-PCR analysis for the binding of NORAD, SNHG1, and GAPDH expression by an anti-FUBP1 antibody compared with that by an IgG control antibody in 293FT cells. SNHG1 and GAPDH served as the positive and negative controls, respectively. b qRT-PCR analysis for the binding of NORAD on FUBP1 in EC cells with Aza treatment by RIP assays. c Western blot for the FUBP1 protein (lower panel) pulled down by truncated NORAD (NORAD-1, -2, -3, and -4; upper panel). d The expression levels of full-length NORAD and fragments transfected in ISK and SPEC-2 cells were detected by qRT-PCR. e Cell-counting assays for ISK and SPEC-2 cells transfected with full-length NORAD and fragments, respectively. f The percentage of apoptotic cells transfected with full-length NORAD and fragments, evaluated by FACS analysis. g Western blot for the expression of cleaved PARP and cleaved caspase-3 after ectopic expression of full-length NORAD and fragments. The results were determined from triplicates, and the error bars represented as the mean ± SD, */# P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
