NESF or NLP treatment decreases GH protein in mammalian somatotroph cells. Effects of 1 h incubation with NESF (a) or NLP (c), or of 6 h incubation (b and d, respectively), on the GH protein levels in GH3 cells detected by Western blot. Representative immunoreactive bands and quantification of GH band intensity. Four independent experiments with triplicates (n = 3 wells/treatment/experiment) were performed for each study. Data from all four experiments were pooled to conduct statistical analyses and are shown as mean ± SEM (n = 12 wells) normalized to the levels of β-actin and presented as a fold change over Control. Different letters indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) between the different concentrations detected by one-way ANOVA test followed by Tukey’s multiple comparison test.
