DNA methylation inhibitors can reverse SENP3-induced methylation effects on E-Cad and cell phenotypes. (A, B) The DNA methylation inhibitors increased the expression of E-cad protein and reversed the SENP3-induced downregulation of E-Cad. (C) The DNA methylation inhibitors decreased the DNA methylation of E-Cad. (D) The DNA methylation inhibitors reversed SENP3-induced promotion of cell invasion of MG63 cells (5-aza-DC-treated group, p = 0.0008; Azartidine-treated group, p = 0.0006; 5-aza-DC + SENP3-treated group, p = 0.0003; Azartidine + SENP3-treated group, p = 0.0002). (E) The DNA methylation inhibitors reversed the SENP3-induced promotion of MG63 cell migration (5-aza-DC-treated group, p = 0.0076; Azartidine-treated group, p = 0.0113; 5-aza-DC + SENP3-treated group, p = 0.0008; Azartidine + SENP3-treated group, p = 0.0001). (F) The DNA methylation inhibitors reversed the SENP3-induced promotion of MG63 cell proliferation. (G) The DNA methylation inhibitors reversed the SENP3-induced apoptosis of MG63 cells (5-aza-DC-treated group, p = 0.0002; Azartidine-treated group, p = 0.0001; 5-aza-DC + SENP3-treated group, p = 0.0010; Azartidine + SENP3-treated group, p = 0.0003).
