Fig. 3

A Representative flow cytometry histogram of MSI2 expression in MEC1, CRL-2261 (non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma), and Ramos (Burkitt’s lymphoma) untreated (black) or treated with siCTR (blue) or with siMSI2 (red). Dotted line is the isotype control for each condition. B MSI2 protein levels (siMSI2:siCTR) in each cell line in triplicate (upper panel). Number of viable cells in each cell line treated with siCTR (blue) or with siMSI2 (red) (lower panel). C Representative histogram of MSI2 expression in CD19+CD5+ cells treated with siCTR (blue) or siMSI2 (red). The isotype control for each condition is shown as dashed lines. D MSI2 expression in CLL cells treated with siCTR and siMSI2 in co-culture with HS5; stimulated with CpG-ODN + IL15; and stimulated with CpG-ODN + IL15 in co-culture with HS5. E Percentage of live cells after siRNA treatment. Paired t-test analysis was performed for each CLL patient. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; ****P < 0.0001.
