RHPN2 upregulates GLUL expression and confers sensitivity to glutamine deprivation. (A) MTT assay to assess the proliferation of A549 cells stably expressing FLAG-RHPN2 or Vector control in the presence or absence of glutamine. (B) RT-qPCR analysis of expression of GLUL in A549 cells stably expressing RHPN2 or vector control. (C) Immunobloting analysis of cell lysates from A549 and H1299 cells stably expressing RHPN2 or vector control. (D) MTT assay to assess the proliferation of A549 cells stably expressing FLAG-GLUL or Vector control in the presence or absence of glutamine. (E) Quantitative results of tumorsphere number and size of H1299 cells expressing GLUL or vector control. (F) Kaplan-Meier overall survival curves for the patients with lung adenocarcinoma with different levels of glutamine synthetase (GS). **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.0001 compared with empty vector.
