MALAT1 is located primarily in the cytoplasm of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells under normoxia or hypoxia. (A–D) Cytoplasmic and nuclear distribution of MALAT1 in breast cancer cells [MCF-7 (A), MDA-MB-231 (B)] and lung cancer cells [A549 (C), H1299 (D)] cells under normoxia. (E, F) Cytoplasmic and nuclear distribution of MALAT1 in MCF-7 (E) and MDA-MB-231 (F) cells under hypoxia. Relative abundance of RNA was normalized to the total amount of RNA and detected by qPCR. BCAR4 and U6 snRNA: nuclear marker. GAPDH: cytoplasmic marker. Data shown are the means ± SDs (n=3). (G) RNA FISH of MALAT1. Cell nuclei were stained by Hoechst staining (blue). MALAT1 was hybridized with MALAT1-FITC probes (green) in breast cancer cell lines and detected by a Zeiss LSM880 microscope. Magnification:1,000×; Scale bar: 5 μm.
