Inhibition of NF-κB downregulates LPS-induced Glut1 expression in macrophages. (A,B) RAW264.7 cells were initially treated with IKKβ-inhibitor SC-514 (for 1 h) and then treated with LPS for additional 1 h (for protein analysis) and 4 h (for RNA analysis). Proteins were analyzed by western blotting using antibodies against phospho-p65 (NF-κB subunit), IκBα, Glut1, and β-actin (loading control) (panel A, quantifications in panel B). (C,D) RNA was isolated from above treated and control cells. Expressions (relative to GAPDH) of HOTAIR, and Glut1 were measured by RT-qPCR. GAPDH was used as control. Data represent mean ± SD (n = 3); *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001, ***p < 0.0001.
