Overexpression of TMEM106B reverses the effects of ANRIL overexpression on monocyte adhesion to endothelial cells and transendothelial migration of monocytes.
A, Relative expression of ANRIL in a scale of log10 in EA.hy926 cells transiently co‐transfected with different combinations of pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1‐ANRIL, or pcDNA3.1‐TMEM106B (n=9 samples/group; 3 wells/experiment with each experiment repeated twice again). B, Relative expression of ANRIL in human coronary artery endothelial cells transiently co‐transfected with different combinations of pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1‐ANRIL, or pcDNA3.1‐TMEM106B (n=9 samples/group; 3 wells/experiment with each experiment repeated twice again). C, Relative expression of TMEM106B in EA.hy926 transiently co‐transfected with different combinations of pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1‐ANRIL, or pcDNA3.1‐TMEM106B (n=9 samples/group; 3 wells/experiment with each experiment repeated twice again). D, Relative expression of TMEM106B in human coronary artery endothelial cells transiently co‐transfected with different combinations of pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1‐ANRIL, or pcDNA3.1‐TMEM106B (n=9 samples/group; 3 wells/experiment with each experiment repeated twice again). E, Relative adhesion of monocytes to EA.hy926 cells transiently co‐transfected with different combinations of pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1‐ANRIL, or pcDNA3.1‐TMEM106B (n=9 samples/group; 3 wells/experiment with each experiment repeated twice again). F, Relative adhesion of monocytes to human coronary artery endothelial cells transiently co‐transfected with different combinations of pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1‐ANRIL, or pcDNA3.1‐TMEM106B (n=9 samples/group; 3 wells/experiment with each experiment repeated twice again). G, Relative transmigration of monocytes across a layer of EA.hy926 cells transiently co‐transfected with different combinations of pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1‐ANRIL, or pcDNA3.1‐TMEM106B was quantified (n=9 samples/group; 3 wells/experiment with each experiment repeated twice again). H, Relative transmigration of monocytes across human coronary artery endothelial cells transiently co‐transfected with different combinations of pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1‐ANRIL, or pcDNA3.1‐TMEM106B (n=9 samples/group; 3 wells/experiment with each experiment repeated twice again). Statistical analysis was performed using unpaired, 2‐tailed Student t‐tests.
