Knock down of AQP4 and cell atrophy. (a) AQP4 protein expression in AQP4 shRNA-transfected C2C12 cells. Differentiated C2C12 cells were transfected with a different dose of shAQP4 for 48 h, and the cell lysates were used for western blot analysis for AQP4 protein expression. (b) Morphology of AQP4 shRNA-transfected C2C12 cells during differentiation. C2C12 cells were differentiated for 7 days with or without AQP4 shRNA. (c) Flow cytometry analysis in AQP4 shRNA-transfected C2C12 cells. Differentiated C2C12 cells were transfected with shAQP4 for 48 h, and the size and granularity (complexity) of cells were determined by forward and side scatter (FSC and SSC) gating, respectively. Forward scatter (FSC) represent the cell size (d), and side scatter (SSC) data represent the complexity or granularity of the cell (e).
